did you first try to avoid trapping them or is there no way with that size pipe?
I could have made them like TTi Headers, but didn't see any reason to do so. Since these pictures were taken, I cut the tube going around the torsion bar, and welded in a V band clamp. makes it super easy to install. I can install the headers with the engine in place. On the driver side, I'll be putting in a t lest 2 V band clamps. One for the header going around the torsion bar, and another to remove a tube, to easily change a starter if I have to.
Wes, my K member is shaped just like what you posted. The headers actually don't hang down as much as my old Hooker Headers.
