I have some good news on the yoke. I was getting ready to package the yoke and pinion when the 2 together would not quite fit in the box. I had the yoke attached to the pinion, which was too long to fit in the box. To try to get the yoke a little further down, I pounded the yoke, while attached to the pinion, onto my work bench. As doing so, it was sliding down more than it would before. I grabbed a hammer and tapped the yoke back off the pinion and placed the pinion back into the rearend housing. I was able to get the yoke further down this time and enough to install it. So good news there, I will be able to setup my rearend and not have to send this yoke back to Moser.
That was the good news...
Here's the bad news...I do not see these headers fitting with the DSE box. These are suppose to be the redesigned headers made to fit the smaller boxes, but they don't. I received a call back from Dynatech, late yesterday, and was told the reason they are not fitting is my motor mounts I am using. I have to call BS on that. The motor mounts are not going to make any difference, whether I run the short ones or the tall ones. The pictures I posted here will show why. I am running original 302/350 stands with Prothane tall mounts. I get to deal with Dynatech some more tomorrow/later today. Only solution I see at this point is sending these back and finding a header that fits. I have to run 1 3/4" headers due to my heads having raised exhaust ports, even though the bolt pattern is in the standard location. If I were up to the challenge, I would build my own headers, but I don't have the time to deal with building a set.
