Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: NEW 401 Pics posted from today



Joe,
 Not a chance of them clearing the head bolts, You will need to spend a few hours grinding. Also be sure to tst fit them in your car with an engine and starter as mine needed a few dings for starter clearance.
Thanks for the nice words about my engine. It sure is taking alot of time to build it right. I hope I can make my goal fo 500 HP on 93 octane gas.

heavily modified. I cut the flanges off between the tubes saved a few
LBS there also had to do lots of clearance grinding to fit over the
headbolts. The tubes were welded on the outside of the flange on each
header tube. #8 tube is all by itself now. I opted not to add a tab
at the #8 tube slip fit as with the flange welded it will be plenty
strong.
