I'm posting this in the modified Explorer section even though this will all be installed in my Ranger. I'm building a replacement engine for the 5.0 that I installed in 2002 since it has over 200k miles and I want more performance. It's a basic 306 with TFS TW 170 aluminum heads with a tubular GT40 intake (lower ported). I have 3 different sets of headers to choose from, but I really want to use the OBX for their performance.
One of the issues is the coupler is hitting the head itself:
Also on the drivers side, the upper pipe hits the valve cover:
The passenger side has clearance:
The intake with a small spacer:
Has anyone else had these issues with the OBX or Torque Monster headers?
I'm sure just a little grinding should fix the problem...
