question about mounting my turbo header

    I'm worried about some clearance issues. These are Pony Down headers. If you look at the picture, the power steering line is within 1/8 of the header and the line touches it down a couple inches unless I tie it back some how. Also, as you can see I trimmed down the sway bar mount for clearance but I didn't quite trim enough so the header is resting on metal area I trimmed.

    I will need to remove the header and reseal if i decide to trim the mount another 1/2 in or so. Thats what I'm debating...

    Should I try to get the header where is not in contact with anything? Or am I over sweating this?

    thanks,

    i would try to get everything to clear by at least a 1/2" at least you might have problems with the power steering fluid boiling if to close which will wreck the seals in the power steering system, been there done that haha
