Installed the Calspeed 1 3/4" headers

I hate to say this but on my 06' Z71 there was a ton of "clearancing" around the drive shaft yoke and the Y-pipe to get them in there. Nice system but alot of work to install on my 4x4. The headers slid in great and the pass side didn't need any work. Do you have pics of the DS yoke to header and Y-pipe clearance?

Again.. I will try and get pics but have been busy.. It is tight around the driveshaft but as long as you leave EVERYTHING loose as you put it all together, you can shift stuff around and make it fit really nice. The entire Y pipe system fits tight everywhere really but it does clear.

I used the band clamps. I agree with the above statement. With two people I may not have had to clearance so much but on my aplication it was absolutly unavoidable. I am thinking of buying another Y-pipe and making another go at that. But with the headers there was no way around what I had to do. I know the guys at CalSpeed are top notch and investigating every issue that comes up. Jim is a great guy to deal with and make a very quality product. He spent a lot of time with me on the phone and was very concerned and receptive to what I was saying. I still owe him all my photos. The truck is apart right now so when I get it all back together I will get that stuff to you Jim.
