Steve, It's not as tight a fit as it appears to be in the pics. I can slide my index finger between the manifold and steering box at it's closest point. I'm routing the exhaust on the drivers side around the front of the tubular cross member away from the steering box. Exhaust pics to follow soon. Pipes will be ready 9/10. I made templates using 1/2" conduit and a conduit bender. Really anxious to fire this thing up.
