Default B16a into 4G Civic 4 Door, Watch Out For X-member Header Clearance

Just (finally) put b16a in 4G Civic EX today, and there was NO room for DC 4-1 header to clear front X-member with HASport motor mounts.....

Just a word of advice and warning, I am gonna have to wait to get PlaceRacing X-member for space...

Too close to just shave off a little from the x-member?

Man, that stuff wouldn't fit even with a big shave and taking the WHOLE flange off the x-member....

Yea, I got it from http://www.placeracing.com and I think it was 192$$ if memory serves.....It sits forward compared to the reg X-member, and is just a straight reinforced bar but gives a whole lot more room.....
