Pretty happy with the transition:
Thought I would give the ICE kit a try and see if it made the job any easier. I've always built 321 SS headers by first mocking them up from steel and then transfer to stainless. Just too expensive to screw up a 321 SS tube.
My space is so tight, seemed like a great time to try it:
So the easy part...need to have spark plug access, be able to remove the valve covers, clear a 335 tire at full lock, clear the coil over, clear the steering linkage, and last but not least, run equal length, long (for a turbo) primary tubes, using only 3" circle bends, that exit between the tire and firewall to mate to the turbo. I've laid this out at least 5 times, so going to give the kit an A on time savings. I stopped caring what it looked like and just concerned with everything clearing and primaries the same length. This is the first example of when all that came together, not the prettiest layout, but meets the "design criteria"!
