Attempted to drop in the intake tonight, but it won't sit flush because the bottom of the intake, where the throttle body bolts up, hits the crossover coolant line. I bought this line because I was supposed to with this intake.
I may see another issue, if I can clear that pipe at the bottom, another part of the intake looks like it might hit another part of the pipe, on the drivers side.
I really don't want to try to pry on the line for fear of a coolant leak.
Any suggestions?
I bought the line from Thunder Racing part number: 12581213
..but the FAST instructions call for 12568478.
Did I maybe buy the wrong line?..Thunders web site said it would work.
TIA

I bent the line and it is fine!

Did you bend it attached to the heads, or remove it & then bend? If I remove it I'm concerned that it won't line up ith the heads again.

I think I left it on the heads. I hit it with a plastic dead blow hammer.

Thanks...did you move the line down (towards floor), or back (towards rear of engine)?

bent mine down also (toward the bottom of the motor) both sides were still attatched to the heads. just be careful and don't smack the line, forceful yet gentle taps with a deadblow plastic/rubber mallet or carefullt pry it down. you'll be fine

Thanks, that did it...used a BFRH (rubber)...was easier to bend it that I originally thought
