Yea, i am going to get them coated as soon as i can..i will pull them tomorrow and wipe them down and put some high heat paint til i can get them done.. the reason they are not turned back is the master cylinder is right there and i sure dont want that heat all over my brakes !!!!! if i would have tried to 90 degree outward then the wheel would hit the collector..kinda stuck.. should have turned them straight up and popped right throught the hood....lol... the plug wires will be routed below the headers, yes.. i wish i had changed my front shock tower too.. well in 2 years i am going to have a complete CM tube chassis built..this was my first attempt at building a Drag Car...live and learn...
