Default after header install questions.

on an Auto what mods do you have to do to the linkage? i filed down the bolt and the y-pipe but still it's hard to engauge from park to drive.
how did you tighten the rear most bolt on the passenger side?it's on but i couldn't put it on to torque specs.
and most important why did i hook up that emmisions stuff??
i might have misspelled a few word but i'm tired. just want to get most of my questions. i'll edit later. right noe i'm going to pass out.

I know the feeling.

I didn't have to do anything to my shifter linkage. That was one of the few things that cleared okay.

I retorqued the bolts after driving the car around and then letting it completely cool down (next day). I then rechecked them every day for a week or so and haven't had a leak (knock on wood).

I see you're in my 'neck of the woods', too.

Good luck.
