I had to grind the tab on dr. side a little..that was it..nicely coated, don't hang low, and nice welds with no slag or burrs in them to clean up....

Mine went in like they were meant to be there. They seem to do pretty well. I went with the race style so I'll always have a little bit of an exhaust leak at the collectors. I can live with it. A 3.5" band clamp with a little aluminum foil between the two really helps. Only time I notice it is a kind of rattle if I let the car coast down from 4500+ rpm's with the clutch in.

It kinda does a little bit, but when I knocked a collector off accidently going into an automatic car wash, I went to Finish Line Performance and they reattatched everything and tucked it under some more to the point where it taps the floorboard once in a while if the rpm's drop too low leaving from a stop in 1st gear, so I know it's up as far as it will go. I can get a measurement tomorrow. It's currently stock ride height.
