Re: Creamsicle: My 70 K10 SWB is about to get sweeter

So with the engine installed there's not a lot of room between my valve covers and firewall. I didn't want to change the position of my NP205 and have to worry about front/rear driveshaft length, so the engine is fairly close to the firewall.

Not much room between passenger side valve cover and firewall.

The Doug Thorley TRI-Y headers (THY-324Y-C) hit the firewall and won't work.

This high pipe out of the Thorley headers hits on the passenger side.
