the ebay set is the lpp knockoffs I guess. I think obx they are stepped 1 3/4 to 1 7/8 just like the lpp's. it will be interesting to compare them side by side when I get around to swapping them out as they look very similar.

ebay headers
yeah i bet the step is hitting the shaft. Im afraid to drive it now lol. Gotta pull it off and start grinding away or modify my LS1 shaft to bolt on.
does the ls1 shaft actually give more clearance?
not 100% sure but I don't think it does in the area we are having trouble. I think it only gives more clearance by eliminating the rag joint but I have tons of room down there. looking at pictures it looks the same to me at the top were it connects to the steering shaft and that's where my ebay headers hit
I have a local club member with a rag joint eliminator that he can give me. Might just do that, and grind down the shaft a bit.
Pull the bolts out of the column to firewall junction and have some pry the knuckle over then you tighten up the bolts. It should get you to clear, otherwise BFH time to shiny headers.
The steering shaft was the only issue I had with my LPP header install. Got a ls shaft and still had to grind on it. Didnt have to dent those pretty headers tho. [emoji4]
Yeah my motor mounts may be fatigued causing it to hit on the pass side. i didnt have time to do the mounts (i bought prothane ones). so hopefully one day I will.
It is RASPY as hell. Will 1 cat be good enough to tone down the rasp? (i need a cat to look good for NJ lol)
Also, what are good stainless band clamps? Im not sure if @LPP will give me a new clamp. The one on the drivers collector broke while tightening it (lol).
I went down to advanced auto and bought 3 inch stainless band clamps for 10Attachment 30060 bucks
