Auto trans line clearance with TPIS headers
We recently installed a set of TPIS headers in a 00 Coupe. There is roughly .125 - 1/8" of clearance between the headers and the line that goes to the transmission. Can you safely bend the line or are there any other options?

Hey Phil, yesy the lines are pretty close to the headers. I will usually try to bend them away a little making sure not to put any bends in the lines to restrict the flow.
