      I found that I had to trim off the metal tab that would bolt to the cylinder head (it helps stabilize and support the dipstick tube) to allow my front header bank to fit. I may even have to bend the tube slightly to get the header to fit. I am finding that I've needed to "tweak" the headers in a couple other spots (with a hammer!) due to very slight clearance issues. I can't wait to get the motor in and running now!
