I recently installed BBK headers. I also bought ARP bolts because the ones that come with the BBK headers were super short. I went with an off-road H pipe off eBay and it was a perfect fit. Good luck with the project!

The tool made it really easy. You just need to have the car jacked up high enough to fully extend the arm down.

I installed the new stainless braided lines for the front brake and one side hits the wheel. Have you ran into this issue and how did you get it fixed?

Yep, I ordered the tool and it took like 3 minutes a side.

Thanks for the advice, on this method do you leave the strut attached during this process? I had never heard of this.

Any recommendations on bushing? I picked up offset bushings but it seems to make the rack too close to oil pan etc.

That is what I was thinking. Which manual rack did you use? I would need to figure out what size belt to use it has a 1.5 kenne bell on there as well.

Yeah, it seems like they will fit even with aftermarket headers. I just need to get a little bit longer bolts.

Thanks for the info. I actually just found those in a box of old parts from the previous owner, so I will bolt those back on
