    1990 obs with lq9 swap, 5spd transmission

    What header set up are you all using, I ordered the schoenfeld set up that everyone uses but I'm having an issue with the passenger header hitting the slave cylinder. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I have a 5 speed in my 1992 but I forgot I have the internal slave setup. How bad is it hitting. On my friends Camaro we had to put a couple on dents in his headers so they would fit around things.

    yeah there's no way the passenger side will go in, I'll have to go with some mid-lengths and hopefully those will work.

    How does that thing shift 5500+? Mine didn't even like 3500+ rpm.

    I don't know I shift at 6500 rpms.1st to second is fine you can powershift but 2nd to 3rd you need to go a little slower. It doesn't compare to other vehicles that had 6 speeds but it is still fun. I will probably up grade to a tremec 5 speed in the future.
