Ps long tubes/y pipe slaping I got my headers on,and I must say it was really easy,besides the egr tube and trans dip stick ,I had to do a little moding.The car runs awsome,and pulls hard from bottom to top,and was worth the 5 hrs to install.I am happy besides the y pipe slapping the bottom when I really get on it,I installed new stock motor mounts,I need to know if anyone has come up with a temp. fix till I get some better mounts.I figure some one has something better than smashing the pipe more.

i have heard that you can take a bfh or a jack to the frame area where it comes close. One guy i know here had an exhaust shop weld a bracket somewhere around that area. When i see him again I will be able to get more details and maybe some pics. And find out how well it has been working for him.

Just take a BFH and either bend the pipe slightly away from the car, or dent the floorpan a little bit. I would just bend the pipe though, alot easier and it wont hurt anything..
