    The pass.side header is rubbing up agains the frame - usually when I'm turning left from a stop and giving it moderate gas (I guess that combo just torques the motor enough to rub the header)

    What can I do to either get more clearance or ???? Could I use some type of heat-sheilded padding? I'm not coming up with any more ideas then that.........and I'm pretty sure bending that one pipe is probably a bad idea....?

    You could always take a hammer to it and "dimple" it a little in that area, it would'nt be the first time.

    Or.....you might wanna upgrade to polyureathane (sp?) motor mounts.


    Or.....call the manufacture and see if they have other complaints about it. If not, have the send you a new pair.
