contact dynatech about the headers fitment issue. They made them based on the SN95. They will swap out the drivers side header for the fox one.
hope it helps

Nice keep us posted. When do you plan on taking it to the dyno or track? I took mine today to get my suspension set up and front end aligned. Hopefully if i figure out my carb problems I will have it at the track in a couple of weeks.
