i like the trans. ALOT better now, :pat on back:,are you going to coat the header/ wrap it. because the brake res. looks tight.

actually, brake has plenty of clearance. The most forward runner is very close to the timing cover, tho. But, to answer your question. Yes. It’s being coated.

Plenty of clearance for the DP?

Yes, remember that it’s running through the firewall over the transmission.
