Under hard acceleration the drivers side of the engine will tend to lift slightly and have more clearance from the steering gearbox. If you can reverse hard enough to torque the engine on its mounts it could hit, but you would really be backing up fast!
My headers were probably that close and I had them for several years with no sign of rubbing, but I do think that the heat might have been a factor in the power steering gearbox seal failure.

If the fit is that tight won't it hit under either hard acceleration or when you put it into reverse? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Submissions to Firebird-L: <[email protected]> Unsubscribe from Firebird-L: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Help: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/firebird/Firebird-L.html> Classifieds: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/ubb/> Owner Pictures: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/show/> Donations: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/store/cart.mv?999999> FGF Merchandise: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/store>
