I will say, for the record (since I did not know) the OEM SAP Delete Plates do NOT fit on the head with the exhaust headers. I just discovered that they are intended to be used on the tubing (but I am trying to eliminate that entirely like done in the OP). Here is a pic of the placement on an S52:

Are you using the stick headers, because they do fit those?I will say, for the record (since I did not know) the OEM SAP Delete Plates do NOT fit on the head with the exhaust headers.

I am, but the OEM plates are larger, not even the gaskets fit. The holes are about 1/4" too far out. After researching it more, it appears they are the same size as the Achilles which installs on the tubing, not the head.
I am ordering some Turner ones to fit in the appropriate location.Comment

I'm going to attempt to take a second and recover pictures. Wish me luck
What are your opinions on the most solid hosters? I can use flickr or the forum itself maybe?Last edited by craiggroves91; 03-02-2018, 12:01 PM.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
