Quick longtube install question

Does that driver's side casting nub need to be cut off or trimmed back for all longtube header installs or is it just a Pacesetter issue getting the header in? Once the header is in, does that nub still get in the way or is it just an install issue?

I had to cut it completely off. As you can see from our responses, there's no "rule", it's luck of the draw far as I can tell.

I have Hookers, but I didn't have to cut the tab. Just depends on your car I guess.

If you have worn out mounts that might cause a clearance issue.
