Hey all! I have a little dilemma. I’m putting together an max wedge clone. (493”)
My issue is I’m going with the factory style MW headers and the passenger side is hitting my valve cover. Due to them being taller mopar performance cast aluminum. I couldn’t go with the shorter factory style cover due to them hit the rockers. So my question is, has anyone ever put shims on their exhaust to gain some clearance? If I shim the header out 1/16” and double gasket it, it’ll clear my valve cover just enough. thoughts??!!
My only thought is it’d be easier to blow the gaskets out!
