Clearance on passenger side with jet-hot long tubes??

Install is almost complete. Take a look at the pic about half way down the page.....does everyone with the jet-hot long tubes have that little clearence? I put in Energy suspension poly motor mounts...could that have done it??

from what i can tell about that pic, it looks like my jet hots. how is the clearance with the a/c lines and the heater box?

the closest clearance on my jet hots was the driver's side flange. about a 1/4" clearance between the flange and the floorboard.
i also have poly motor mounts and tranny mount.



ps: i pm back about the duals

The ac line is real close under the #2 primary. I also have about 1/4" on the driver side floorboard. When the motor torques, does it hit the floorboard?? I might have to take the ole' sludge to it(floorboard).

Pm'ed back about the duals.

There is no clearance between my jethots and the passenger side of the k-member and no clearance with the A/C line either. Maybe I should get me some poly mounts? I still have the stock mounts which have about 115k miles on 'em.

How bad are the vibrations from the poly mounts. I don't even know why I'm asking, cause I'm sure it isn't as bad as the vibration I get now from the header hitting the K-member.
