    I started on my turbo project today and I got the headers off and swapped them to each side. I have poly motor mounts and the drivers side #8 cylinder header tube is hitting the mount. The motor mounts seem to be significantly bigger then factory ones. What are you guys doing about this? Does the turbo header that B&G or similiar companys solve this issue? Thanks!

    I had to grind some off my stock replacement mounts to clear flipped Hooker Equal Length Super Comps.

    Thanks for the reply. I was wondering if that's what I'll have to do too.
