Castle headers in my lj

Hi there all,
Just brought a set of castle headers for my Lj with a 304 in it. The right side fits real good but the left side hits on the floor. Anyone had trouble with this and what the best thing to do. I call them up and they told me I'm the only one with this trouble and that my floor was bent. What a load off s** t i reacon. I'm thinking off cutting the up to fit. Any ideas would be great.

Cheers tony

Hi tony

Your not the only one I have the same problem with mine.

Here are the pics of the steering


Hope it works

Hi ljshawn
Cheers for the pic, this is what I have been told but your pic makes it easier. Have you had trouble with castle headers too then.

Hey Tubo,

I had no end of trouble with my castle headers ls1 into LX.  Drivers side fitted good but the passenger side hit in about 3 places.

They offered nothing on the phone except everything else was wrong except the headers. Ended up cutting and shutting mine to get them in.

Hope that green rocket of yours is still going sweet.  Nice to see you've joined the forum

 

Cheers.

Hey tony
Yeah mine are still sitting in the shed somewhere, jethot extractors are the same as castle. I'm doing a efi conversion. Now so once it comes time for extractors ill mod them to get them to fit

Hi there all,
It's good to hear I'm not going crazy with my exhaust. They don't help you on the phone at all. Just as well for me I never gave them feedback till I tried them. Looks like I'll be doing the old cut and shut on them.

Hi LS1rana,
The old green girl is doing good. Ls1 in To the lx would be a sweet ride. Were do I know you from.

Hi Tony

I had the same problem with my lc 304efi with the castle extractors they are rubbish mine was also hitting the floor. No mater

what i tried they would not fit. I also was thinking off cutting them but never did and just got rid of them.

Cheers

Hi boynuz
The funny thing is the fit wicked on the right side but hit on the left. So they get it right on the harder side coz they need to miss the steering and the x member but the easy side hits the firewall. I'm just ganna cut them. Even the dip stick needs to be modified on the high energy pan there's no room for one.

Hi Tony

I think cutting them is the only option as mine was exactly the same.
