I installed my longtubes last night and the shorty H. The headers didnt really line up very well. I had to use a jack to line them up. It seems that the h pipe hangers are too long. Does this sound right and is this a chronic problem with LTs?? Any ideas on how to fix this?? I cant even get my car out of the gararge. My sht scrapes from the garade to the driveway ![[Eek!]](eek.gif)
Maybe an inch and a half clearace

What brand of headers do you have? My BBK full length's hang pretty low and my H-pipe had a hard time lining up.

If the H-pipe is giving you the fits just get a grinder and cut the hangers off or take it to a shop and have them do it. It takes about a minute or two. I once had this problem with a different H-pipe and I did this and it lined up just right. I had no problems by cutting the hangers off.

You prove time after time to be a complete fag.
By the way since you assume everything, that car is not a loaner, I'm doing a lot of things for her to sell it. That was a test drive considering I did a tune on it, and ripped on it in one gear. Race my R1- now your being a fag again. I'm not quite sure why I respond to your rediculous comments, but I'll say:
HA- you deserve the slow you recieved from the exhaust.
