Revworks UEL Install Problem
 
Anyone who has installed the revworks UEL can you assist me on something. As you may know one of the 3 nuts on the drivers side collection pipe can be tightened but not all the way as the angle of the pipe interferes with tightening the nut tightly. The angle of the 3/8" extension and 14mm socket won't all it to catch the nut correctly. Has anyone ran into this problem if so what did you do? I took it for a test ride and there was no leaks or sounds that I could distinguish but I want to tighten it again to make sure i just don't know how. Im thinking a swivel socket would work but Im not sure

Don't fully insert the extension into the 14mm socket, just enough to make contact. This will give you some extra room so the stud can go into the 3/8 hole of the socket.

Edit:When I say 'extension', I was inferring a wobble extension (aka u-joint).

I used an open ended wrench and stuck it between the pipes onto the nut. Then ran an allen wrench through the closed end and twisted. Luckily it's a low torque requirement for the manifold nuts.
