Didn't need to bend it much though. It looks like just an extra piece of sheet metal over the lower part of frame. Not sure if it was absolutely necessary to bend, but it did seem to make them go in easier.
Other top tip... Put in the overpipe before you put the new headers on. Ask me how I know.
Videos of the exhaust and weight savings are on my Instagram page: Instagram.com/jhillmotorsports
I can't wait until spring to get this thing tuned and drive it!! |
You might want to let JDL on what you did for more clearance.
