^^^Let it be noted that the drivers side header was custom fabricated from a stock header to get the angle he needed to accomplish this.

Run it back under the tranny behind the bell housing or tucked just in front of the bell housing and into a collector on the pass side or just hpipe um there and run a dual back.

Like dis...........

Even if you have a shop reroute it, it would be cheaper then wrapping it around. The front. Im $600 into mine and no muffler and i only get to the axel.

So you're saying get long tubes and reroute the back runner? Then where to meet it with the passenger side

Send it to Omaha........I'll do it for cheaper then that. If I have my motor ready to go I'll even test fit it for you! ;)

Yea I may have to take ya up on that lol

[IronFreak]

.......wow, not looking forward to that part hahaha.

Ya it was a pain to get everything to fit. I snaked 3" madrel between the mount and subframe, around the starter, and down between the frame starter and rear subeframe mount (maybe it was the control arm mount, eitherway). With all 2.5 and 3" mandrel/ovalized im like $250-$300 in just materials.

Does this runner have to be re-routed? If so, where? Doesn't seem logical due to the location of the other runners.

I would think, thats really close the the firewall. I wonder if you could get creative and switch the routing for the #4 you're pointing at with the #2. that way it would go forward then down. I don;t know how handy you are with a welder, it would take a little work.

Bring it to a driveline place. It'll cost you around $300 to have it done. They should be able to cut everything to length and either use a conversion u joint or weld the e30 u joint stuff to the mustang side and balance everything.

Yeah, I have a great drive line shop down the street from me. I had them shorten a Jeep driveshaft for me a while back. charged $100 bucks. You still used a one piece mustang DS though correct?

[IronFreak]

is there room on the drivers' side if it went straight down to route around the steering?

like these:

Turn those bad boys upside down and go straight through the hood.....

Problem solved!

[eurotrash]

Block huggers may work but there expensive so i haven't tried um.

What did you deiced to do for a drive shaft? I'm still playing around with this. I have a tremec 3550 I'm using that has a 31 spline output shaft.....I was thinking about getting a stang drive shaft and cutting the mounting plate off the bmw DS and welding it to the stang shaft, then have it balanced. I'll have to get a 31 spline yoke for the front, but then I would have 1 solid shaft vs. the split shaft it currently has.

How are you going about yours?
