February 4, 2008 - Time to finish off the header.
Step one is to make a jig. After all, a misalignment here will cause problems all the way down the exhaust system. So I mounted the Racing Beat header up on a spare engine and transmission, then bolted the flange from a stock midpipe to the end of the header. A quick and dirty bracket was welded on to this and bolted to the back of the transmission. Voila, a jig. Flyin' Miata actually has these for all the various Miata models, but nobody could find the 1999-05 one I needed.
