Thank you all, ERA Chas..some answers to your questions:

1. When the engine was mounted and centered in the car the pipes we centered in the wholes but in the back they were horizontally further from the body than the front of the car. When I said I used a lot of persuasion to get the back tabs connected, that meant I pushed the pipes horizontally towards the car.

2. I am checking the pipes as well. I tend to agree with the fact that you don't want any tension but after talking to other ERA owners and Doug at ERA, it seems that a lot of folks have issues and everyone seem to recommend using a little effort to push them in.

3. Not Drag Racing...most like just street driving and maybe some track time some day.

4. I know this seems odd but the drivers side pipe seems ok..just the passenger side seems to have migrated to the top of the whole.

PS...thanks for the words of encouragement...to get this far and not have to take things apart is frustrating to say the least.
