Crap!

Bought a Mr. Gasket spark plug wire divider kit on ebay, nice red color, anondized aluminum, assembled the holders inside, went out to put them on the truck and realized that my rams horns won't clear them. Damnit!

P.S.: Anybody got a cheap set of headers FS?

If they are the style that run the length of the valve cover and attach by the valve cover bolts, I have seen others use spacers. That might work for you. I have seen it done with wire dividers from Billet Specialties.

Why not put a spacer under the unit to raise it up past the ram horn.....

I've made spacers out of fuel line and put longer bolts in.....worked good and no problems.

Might do that....really I'm looking for a lame excuse to put in headers and a pair of x-pipes I don't expecially want to use spacers just cause they won't look so great, but meh..
