What type of headers did you use ?
Are there any other issues that will be encountered?
I like the way it looks over the Bowler mount I was looking at

Mine bolted right up with no issues.
I had an energy suspension mount that didn't seem to fit (wouldn't sit down in the pocket of the crossmember). I did some research and saw it required a specific Prothane mount. I will be putting my engine/transmission back in my car in about 2-3 weeks, and haven't tried that mount yet, but will let you know soon. Worst case I may have to slot the holes slightly to bring the crossmember further forward in the car by about 1/8-1/4".
My car is a turbo car, so headers wouldn't be applicable to you. I have stainless works up/forward turbo headers that have been modified.
Other issues mentioned above, mount is specific and dependent if mount makes it fit perfect I MIGHT have to slot the mounting holes.
I really like the looks fo this one too and it really does give a TON of room for exhaust to route through it. I have 3" exhaust through mine and there is room to spare.
