    big D did you put the mounts in the same hole the factory ones sit in?on AKG they use the slotted hole for the mount locations, maybe that lowered yours a tad from that...

      No that's what I did too - the other way requires elongating the primary hole. That would actually put the engine higher, since they're closer together so the rake wouldn't be so great. I'll see, maybe I didn't even need the driver's side spacer. Perhaps if I take it out it'll fix things, if all I really needed was some elevation on the exhaust side.

        I didn't notch my subframe and had to use 3/8th inch spacers to clear the headers. I have a spare subframe that I may notch depending on how it handles at the track.
        Mike, with those spacers did you have to any other mods to fit the euro headers?

        Thanks

          Just the spacers, and you have to knock in the passenger side firewall a bit.
