headers (stellings) clearance questions
ok so everythign fit great on the tailpipe side of the equation BUT the front of the port header hits the damn power steering/alternator bracket!!!!
how exactly does that get remidied? who make a bracket that will relocate them and clear the headrs but still work with the main pulley belt locations???
shes getting damn close to running!!!

PS Bracket
Puder, can you mount the pump on the star side? Merc offers a mount for that side. It positions the pump a little lower than your bracket. I have ran mine there with Stellings.

fyi it required that the steering pump and the alternator be mounted on seperate brackets.
