Has anyone installed Steeda motor mounts with long tube headers? I can access the driver’s side engine bracket to mount bolt from the engine bay to torque it down, but accessing the bolt on the passenger side is a different story. It appears that the passenger side bolt can only be accessed from the bottom (which is also going to be a challenge) with my LT headers installed. I need to torque the bolts to 41 ft-lbs. Has anyone else encountered this problem with LT’s installed? If so, how were you able to tighten the passenger side engine bracket to motor mount bolt? I didn’t have this problem when I installed the Bassani LT’s on my 2013 GT, as the header allowed the necessary clearance to reach the bolt from the engine bay. Thanks.

A ratcheting wrench with a swivel end and set to German spec.

Copy that! I used ratcheting 15mm and 17mm wrenches to get it done to German specs and it worked perfectly.
