Default S10 - LS1 Header Repair

Did some work on a customers S10 race truck with an LS1 in it. The frame did some custom denting to the Headman headers. So we cut out the section, and welded it back up.

The frame did that? Did it get wrecked or something?

Why bother? doesn't look like it would be visible, it wouldn't make any difference in power and if it happened hitting the frame it will happen again unless you went to different mounts or cut out the part of the frame that hit hit.
