RE: stupid longtubes
does anyone have issues with their headers coming way too close or even touching the spark plug wires on the driver side. i have a set of long tubes, not sure of the brand, but to get to my spark plugs i have to remove the header on the driver side. what gives. soo annoying.

sorry for misinform but then y the hell would you pay to get headers that you have to cut? bbk's work just fine and u dont have to waste your time cutting something, doesnt make any sense to me. maybe there is some benefit that i am not understanding.

you dont cut premade exhaust parts, good luck making them leakproof now. i put in my bbk longtubes without cutting anything, just jacking the motor up and shaking them in like hell.
if they are just leaking from the gasket then try sandwiching 2 gaskets together with gasket maket or try some expensive aluminum gaskets
