    Can someone give me the measurements. For the header mounts. Where the dip stick might be. If i need to cut or dremel. Is this gonna need to be taken care of before i install?

    Nothing you can't remedy by bending the lines a little. I'd run push lok hose through the frame.

    I'd suggest running an Lt1 starter and if using the stock lines I'd wrap a heat jacket over them there over the cradle,..the headers will actually sit on the lines putting un wanted extra heat in the fluid
