I had to take mine to a muffler shop and have it bent to fit my 80 Spit.
It took some real work on their part to get sufficient angle so that it
wouldn't interfere with my frame.

Subject: Fitting 4 to 1 Header Problems
Hello fellow Spitlister's
After a nice sunny weekend and a lousy running spit, I checked out all
the regulars, fuel, timing, ect and low and behold my cooked my cat, the
catalytic converter
totally internally self destructed and blocked up my exhaust system
solid with the pieces, so I guess its time to install the 4 to 1 header
I've had for a while! found
my stock manifold had a gaping crack in it too!
Here's my question, How can I get this header in, (80 spit) after
removing the manifolds and shrouds, I can get this bugger in, no
clearance, I guessing I have to loosen the motor mounts and jack up the
motor,
Any body have a pointer or 2,
Cheers
Gerry
