Mark, What size kooks headers are you running. i noticed you made mention that the fitment was dead on with their motor mount adapters, how do you think this would translate to a stock subframe.

thanks in advance

The standard Kook's size for an LS-conversion into a 1st gen is 1 7/8". I believe that Mark said earlier that he purchased the set unwelded so that he could assemble them the way that he wanted, likely optimizing clearances.

BTW, I have a brand new set of these which I just purchased but will be selling. I'm going a different route, haven't even opened the box yet. PM me if interested, I'll post an official for-sale ad next week.
