IX Headers

[ndfspd67]

So I bought my IX with these no name headers on it (Pics later) and they do not clear my oil filter. The pipe for cylinder 1 is right up against the filter and I cannot get it off without removing the headers. I have looked into a filter relocation kit and from what I have found you need to build your own and it ends up costing over $400. For that price I would rather see if there are other cheap headers that do not cause these issues. I am planning to build a complete exhaust from the headers back so I am fine with any downpipe mods needed. If anyone knows any headers or manifolds that would work for me that would be greatly appreciated!

if you have no A/C, rotate the filter housing 180 degrees.

I have A/C still and this is my daily so I would like to keep that if possible. Thank you though

A remote filter install should NOT cost $400.

What is the thread size at the block? I found a kit that may fit it lists the thread size as (13/16-16 in). Thank you "The Dark Side of Will"
