I know about the grinding. That was not a problem. Obviously the front and back hole fit on the alignment stud or bolt. What about the other end of each header? Does the tab just rest on the bolt or is some kind of up or down adjustment necessary so the ports line up?
Thanks

I believe mine are resting on the bolts. The top of the headers are flush with the top of the ports on the head on all. Hope that helps!

did you grind the headers or the little tabs? The little tabs are a whole lot cheaper.

I ground the little tabs and added a washer or two here and there.

I guess "tabs" was the wrong word. I am talking about the flanges. Mine rest on the bolts but the tops of the header are not flush with the tops of the head ports. I may have to adjust the headers up. It may not be that critical given the size of the ports. Any thoughts?
Thanks
