Are those really TTI shorty Headers? The first tube seem to drop down instead of angling back at around 45 degrees.
They're TTi's...
Yea they are, most TTI shorties I have looked at had lots of space around the box. Even the stock power box clears no problem. Did you use old rubber biscuit engine mounts that may have flattened out over time?
I'm quite suprised as well as I know of a couple of people who have both the Borgeson box and TTi headers. But with how wishy washy factory tolerances and 40+ years of moving around anything is possible.
That's quite possible as I reused the ones that the previous owner gave me.
I would fix the engine mount before you start bashing the header, if you have looked at other cars with the same headers and box you already know that you should have lots of clearance in that area. I guess that whoever put the engine in just bolted it in wherever it landed in the engine bay....
