New gasket after prepping with acetone.

Needed to modify the power-steering pump bracket to fit above the new header.

TRUST Header installed.

Ordered the TRUST header 5/6MGE 10510550 and combiner 11010001 from FortyOne Automotive in NZ. Took a while to manufacture and eventually arrive.

But this is what it looks like.

Unfortunately it got a bit scuffed during shipping. So i gave it a touch up coat of VHT flameproof blue.
