They do look pretty fat. Just wondered because mine have lost the coating at 75k mi. of salty winter roads and are corroding like a SOB. He must have caught his early or something.

they varied in thickness as well... if you're wondering, it's a direct swap to the larger ones, the crossmember just gets moved back...

Holy $#!^, I hope they don't have to come off to drop an M50D...the slave cylinders seem to let loose every 40k or so, and I'm due for another.

they do. cause you have to take the starter off, and that wont happen with the headers on. It makes it a LOT easier.
