Pic Request! Installed pass. side SW/Sp headers

[Pincushin3819]

OP mine was hitting where you are close at. I drive my car pretty hard & noticed it was getting worse with a loud vibration in the upper rpms. I took a long pry bar to bend the primary & it seemed to work but still close. I just finished installing opg's/cs with a Paxton & definitely do not want to chase down false knock when I data log so will try to adjust the motor today & maybe some header wrap. Are changing the motor mounts difficult like the headers or?

Its actually similar to the header install just without removing the headers lol

Motor mounts are easy with an engine support mechanism.

All you need to do is support the motor, lift the motor, remove them, replace them.

I just looked and measured the space between my headers and the car. 1/2" or more clearance at the closest part (that bolt which is actually below the headers level) and I can fit my finger between it. The picture looks close because of the angle, but there is plenty of clearance and I haven't had ANY contact.

Thanks for posting. You can see where the lower primary kicks out just below the bolt in the picture, but you clearly more space than I do. And judging by where you motor mount bolt is aligned you engine is sitting closer the passenger side than mine is. Maybe I do have an unusual set then

Mine looks about the same as yours. Again, I just have rubbing during left turns, but there's certainly contact and there's very little space (my passenger collectors look just as close as yours do).
