Looks like your flanges will be made out of old weight machine plates left over from another project. Didn't realize I had 20-30 of them down at the barn. Figure I'll make some T6's while I'm at it. Haven't decided what I'm going to run on mine.

Yeah, It really wouldn't be much work since its a solid mount car. shoot me a PM and let me know what you want for the flanges! Also i know a guy who is selling some brand new OBX manifolds with the dimensions i provided earlier. he wants $300 shipped if you are in need.

I hope I have enough room to get a set of these in. Hopefully once I get the measurements, I'll know. Wish I'd have measured when the old anchor was still mounted.

I looked up under the fenders a few days ago and am guessing there is 3/4" to 1" of additional clearance per side available there. No problem with hacking the crap out of it if needed.
