Nope, I just finished bolting them up but now I need to cut out the tranny crossmember  and make a new one so I can run lers. The end of the collectors is almost hitting the crossmember how stupid is that

well just finished making the cross member now I need to make tabs on the frame rail to mount this bad boy and then I can get my exhaust done (personally I like driving it with open headers).

That's what you call squeezing them in there. Nice job they look good.

so this is what I ended up with, a problem that I did not see before is that the  thing sits 3-1/4 in from the ground. Once I get my exhaust done I will try to fix it but I just needed something to hold the tranny since I cut the factory brackets off.

wow that sits way too low for my comfort. But i got to hand it to ya with the fab skills. One thing i saw would there be a way to angle the cut outs for the exhaust up insted of down for clearance?

I will try to fix it after I get my exhaust hung then I will see how much room I have I needed to make this so I could remove the factory mounts. But I agree it is way to low for me also good thing I bought extra tubing
