Sidepipe holes are cut out all went well. I cut them about 3/8 in small and put the headers in- they are pretty good. I will trim them up and we are ready. The templetes fit different from one side to the other.

Also, did you take out the inner fender panels before the install or did you just drop in there?

ng- I started with the Kirkham templets I got online at their website. Cut the rough opening out with an air powered die grinder. Finished off with an air powered rotary file with a 1/2 dia burr. Did a little hand filing pretty easy actually. I made both sides look the same by hand feeling- sort of like artwork.
RodKnock, I took the driversdied inner fender out left the passenger side. Id would be easier to take them all out but not enough easier to me to R & R the passenger fender. If I wasn't needing to do all the plumbing on drivers side I would have left it too.
Ron come on up- Car is at one of the funner stages. How many miles do you have on that thing now?
