So PRO50SC you have no clearance issue's.....anything you had to modify to put them in...like plug wires etc?

I like my equals..look bad ***. Not really all that hard to get in, just might want to use cap screws instead of the stockers.

The only thing I had to do is shim the drivers side motor mount cuz the header was just barely touching the steering shaft. Other than that, no problems. If I had new motor mounts, that may not even have been an issue. I have the Ford motorsport wires, no issues either. See

Oh also I trimmed each wire to the exact length for exact propper fit. Notice they're not laying all over the place. Maybe that's the difference.

Looks clean....doesn't even look like equals...looks more like unequal. But good job on the trimming of plug wires.

RE: Equal Length vs non equal length shorty's

I honestly dont feel like going through the hassle so Im not going w/ equals.

Also, I wouldnt run LT's unless you are pushing out like 300-350 hp... it will hurt you more than anything.
