need header pictures!
I looked on Google and on here and can't seem to find any good pictures..
I'll be running a 5.3 ls motor with the boss frog kit..
I'm looking for any pictures yous have showing the heads compared to the engine bay, how low they sit, how close they are, ext
Looking to see how much room i will have because I'm going twin turbo.
Anything like that will help. Thanks!

These guys do have the steering shaft in it but I have kind of a weird pipe going around it. See my blog here for the details on that mess. Jim and Jenna build diary, Miata LS1 Conversion: The devil is in the details!

Thanks guys!!
If u have a picture showing the height of the exhaust compared to the inner fender/frame and on from the side showing how close the last exhaust port is to the firewall. That would be awesome!
I'm having the headers made before I have the motor in the car. Stupid, yes probably, but I'm not planning on getting the car until after I move in the next few months... So well see how close I can get with pictures lol.
Thanks again for the help.

Promise you won't zoom in on the welds....
This is as low of an angle as I have for straight on but I know of a couple others in my files. Let me look a bit.

Haha thanks that's perfect. Should give me a good idea of the room I'll have. And no worries on the welds I welded twice in my entire life and I'm gonna try and fab my headers this time around haha..

Not quote the photos that I thought was there but look through this one anyway.
More testosterone than my ride can handle. (LS1 conversion) - Page 4 - MX-5 Miata Forum
This one is probably better to check out and don't miss the pix in post 66. I would search on that LS2 guys threads for a build too.
