Default Anyone have clearance problems with torque limters?

I had to take off my TL to jack up my engine when I installed my longtubes. When I was putting them back on, I started with the driver's side, and it went on fine. The passenger side, however, was hitting the longtubes, making it impossible to attach it to the transmission. Does anyone else have this problem or have a solution for it. I may try to install them again later. It's been about 8 months since I put my longtubes on. Maybe they've moved by now? (lol yeah right)

I believe when I installed mine there were two holes you could locate the limiter in. I guess it would depend on what size header you have also 1 5/8 or 1 3/4. I live in St.Peters too.

I'll have to take a look at it again, I guess. I have the 1 3/4.

Where in St. Peters are you at? I live in O'Fallon, but have a St. Peters mailing address.

Near Feise RD. huh. You'll have to check out Chucka Burger off Elm in St. Charles, and Jay's off of Duchesne in St. Charles on the weekends once decent weather gets here.

Just wanted to say the headers did seem to shift a bit, so now they're back on.
