Custom build headers, hinson makes a set, JTR (jags that run) make a set there are other options. U should use any wilwood master (they are the easiest but you can use anything that is .750 or 3/4 inch for the t-56). If you need/want more info just pm me

is there a reason why i would need customer header? my guess is to clear
the tranny tunnel. so these headers would be very close to the sides of the engine i imagine.


i just test fit my motor, looks like i have very limited space for clutch mc. i have a RHD rx7
