hi guys,
I'm about to have Tsp- headers and i was told there's something need to be cut ignored to fit headers, those who have those, what have you done... car is V8 SS convertible..

depends on what size. some people installing the 2" long tubes have issues with it rubbing the steering rack. 99% of those with smaller headers don't have any issues. I run 1 7/8" long tubes and I have plenty of clearance.

I have 2" ARH and have room to spare. 2" have more power and torque from idle to full throttle. Look for JRE header test for the results.

I just installed TSP 1 7/8 headers a few months ago and there were no fitment issues at all. Plenty of room, no rubbing and everything bolted right up.

I went with the 1 7/8 no fitment issues and yes the 2" headers are lazy down low. A car with same cam and mods made much less torque.

I got tsp 2" headers on my vert. I did have to dimple a couple of tubes on both sides. But performance, price and sound are awsome

I have tsp 1-7/8 headers. Zero fitment issues, they bolted right up and delivered the goods!

What'd your car make, I am looking at doing the same cam next month? Debating on ported heads and a fast setup to match with it.

I installed the 2 inch and I needed to dimple one tube because of the shaft....it's really not a big deal to do

1 7/8 fit without any issues. They do hang a little lower than I'd like them to, but it seems that's how all my cars with long tubes are.
