Default ARH clearance

For those of you who have american racing headers: How much clearance do you have between left header and trans cooler lines. Mine are up against the block and still touching right header pipe. I have a 4 speed trans.

Don't have any pictures. Lines run close to block and headers are right there too. Not alot of room there for them.

I'd say to wrap the cooler line in that spot, and maybe even "clearance" the header pipe a little bit.

I previously had Dynatech's but went with the 1 7/8" ARH. I'm assuming they are close because of larger pipes. There is enough clearance so they aren't smashed but closer then I would like. I can wrap them or maybe try and make other lines.

I ended up wrapping mine. They were not touching, but a little close.
