Dougs

StrokerScamp I didn't realize I could get movement at the motor bracket side of the mount. Honestly I'd rather not have to ping these babies if I don't have to!

I just installed them and they seem close in that area. I would just mark the tube where it is close with a marker. Take the header off the car. While placing an 8" long piece of hardwood on the inside of the tube just take and put a large c-clamp across the tube. The side where the wood is placed will spread the load and not collapse while the side close to the power steering pump will just bend in that small amount you are looking for. Probably put a cloth on the pipe first to not hurt the ceramic coating. All you are doing is making a little dimple which will actually look like it was built that way. I would make a hardwood half dowel for the clamp to squeeze against and make a nice looking dimple type bend.
