Clearance on the steering shaft is measured in feet... Actually the closest interference is on the passenger side, with the crossmember, but its still 1/8 of an inch. I may clearance it later.

Thanks,
Mark

Not bad, post some pics when you complete the welds. Nice collectors...

Heres a link to my photobucket album, i snapped about 60 pics and didnt have a lot of time to flip through them so there are some duds... It gives you a good idea, you can see the passenger side front primary is sitting against the crossmember, I can clearance that once the engine is out with my die grinder. I was thinking about redoing the first two primaries on that side but decided to leave well enough alone.

These are nice! I have an LS3 in my RX7, and the headers from JagsThatrun were about $950 brand new with 3 inch Vband clamps and ceramic coated. With the 02's on top, is there any chance of them hitting something? Was there no room to rotate them inboard so they point at the motor?

Hey Mark, did you have to do any adjustments for the uprights? I see you are using the manual rack for more oil pan clearance.....Nice work again.
