Why would you have to cut yours? What chassis/engine/motormounts are you running?

sometimes you have to if you run different b series headers, i mean you can always pound it in but cutting is easier

fyi my friend cut his to clear his b series header and now it flexes a decent amount

...why not just get an appropriate header without putting your safety in the line?

I had a DA with an LS/V and full header with a completely stock subframe bar. (Spoolin' Fab. TOP QUALITY! ) ...Das are infamous for header clearance issues ...

My ED has a full header(genuine RMF "long" header) and stock subframe bar...(unfortunately, hopefully before too long it will be getting full traction bars.)
