Cam,
Reserve judgement until you see the one that's on the way to Shayne. And then let me know if there are any issues so I can make any changes that may be necessary.
It's actually the first of the newest production batch and has some changes
from the ones that anyone else has seen. Shayne should have it
next Friday.

As I told Phil, the way to assure that every header would fit over the studs and dowel pins on the heads was to pick up the flanges from the header shop after they were cut out, bring them back to my shop, fit them onto my head, mark them all, and then cut the proper clearances on my mill. In the long run a hell of a lot quicker than doing it after the header is put together. And then I still check each header when I get it.

The big advantage of these headers should be that you can crank in negative camber and they will still clear the upper A arms.
