Re: bb mount ?
swap the frame mounts side to side, you will have to tweak them a bit like I did, but it works, some headers may not work w/o dimpling though.

Re: bb mount ?
I had hell getting things to line up, but it eventually worked. You will have to drill the lower holes, and you may curse alot lol, but I have got mine setting pretty.......I can't wait for the flaming about my radiator being too tall.

Re: bb mount ?
I just fitted the BB on the I6 mounts, now that is tight! Had to cut the firewall on the drivers side and notch the mount to fit the headers but I wanted the most set-back I could get.
