Here is the latest update on the swap. I ordred some headers, which hopefull should be in by the end of the week. Then I just need to install them and probly have some welds done. I will do some more updating along with a parts list and what it cost me to do the swap. I will try to include everything that I can..

Chow...

since the KFX ones won't work I think thats your only option. Hopefully those dont' have the same problem as the KFX's. It looks to me like it should work out no problem, too bad I didn't get a picture looking down the fans when I installed mine.

i meant I hope the OBX headers don't run into the slave cylinder like the KFX headers. What radiator do you have? I have seen some people put 95 Honda Civic Aluminum Rad's on beta's and they claim they work great.

If it hits the slave cylinder we can build like a 1/2" aluminum port matching spacer. smile.gif

i was looking at pictures and I think you will be fine, the OBX's stick out from the block quite a bit until the very bottom and they don't stagger over to the driver side like the KFX ones do.

I don't know about what 187 said, thats one of those things easier said then done
