Re: Rotten Lime, The verdict is failure.

looks like it's just clamped into place, he could drop the down a bit further.   2 1/2 - 3" judging by the pic's

[Dingman.]

But then the logo is going to be covered... lol jk

Yea i didnt notice he could move it down as much.  And im not familiar with how much taller that motor is than a 22re.  I just know my 3.4 is alot taller than my old 3.0 and i had to alter the hood for it to close.

[zippo]

Thats sick!

Not gonna cause any clearance problems when you close the hood is it?  I just know the 3.4 swap is really tight, but not really familiar with your swap.

Any higher and it might. Depending what the hose shop says, I am going to try and lower it down a little. I also mounted the 3rz as low as possible with the 6" lift try and give a lower COG.

I'm actually wondering if your headers gonna get beat up... that is super tight in there.

Yeah, only time will tell. But i had no other option. Well other then a stock header and what fun is that!

[zippo]

I ran out of parts and got bored. Flex test. 24" Not to bad for new leafs...

[zippo]

Finally got my header back. Its all shinny and pretty. Bolted up and looked awesome! With some final touches on the housing I have a good 1/4" clearance.

My cats enjoyed the item as well.

[zippo]

[*** YELLER ***]

[zippo]

***sigh*** I've been pulling my hair out trying to find a clean 84 - 88 Ext Cab. All I need is the body and interior. All I find is hacked on junk.

HELP...

[TacoRunner]

Hey Zip I just noticed that the bolts holding your ebrake rotor are on backwards. Was this on purpose?

Sorry about the interior and body stuff. Its really getting harder to find good stuff as these things get older. 

[zippo]

Come buy it.
