Love the detailed and clean assembly. Your my Hero.
I wanted the shorty to clean up the bottom. I don't like seeing collectors hanging down. Thanks for the comment. I don't feel like I'm a hero just a Dumb A$$ right now. I went out to the shop tonight and got disgusted with what I did to my frame. I'm $hit canning this idea and licking my wounds and get some headers that fit.

I will be putting these headers up for sale in the for sale section. Here is a LINKY
