Doug Thorley Headers with SB Trick Flow Heads

Lets think about this a bit, I here that the motor may not be centered,well when the header tubes are jamed up against the t/bars that will not matter. The t/bar are connected to the lower control arms then onto the cross member on the body. Those points are a given, if the K member is off one side to the other it won't make a difference. The mounting points for the t/bars are a given. If the header tubes are hitting the bars there going to hit no matter.So that leaves one of 2 things, the headers are off or the exhaust port on the head has changed. I can understand the motor off center thing with the header hitting steering parts but not the t/bars.


The engine should not be centered. If forget the exact amount but IIRC its .750 or so.

I was told it was done to make the starter fit, but I can't verify that.

If you measure the chassis you'll see the T bars are centered in the chassis but the engine isn't.
