Vibrant Header Install Problem Please Help

Hey guys i already tried the search option for this but seeing as not to many people have the vibrant header yet i came up empty handed. after removing all the old stuff i was ready to install the new header, however when i went to line it up with the studs the heater coolant pipe on the back of the engine was in the way. its towards the drives side. has anyone else ran into this problem or have a solution. here's a picture its the front hose in the picture that comes out and then bends up.

Vibrant Header Pictures

I just installed my Vibrant Header-back ehaust without a hitch...not sure about that hose thats in your way, I know that I did not have much room to tighten the nuts on the new header but I kinda managed. Here are some installed pictures, not sure if they will help you out however...

Well we figured out what we had to do and got it done. Where the tube comes up and pulls a 90 we cut it. We then got some new heater core hose and some got clamps. We clamped it down good and there is no problems. Pictures coming tomorrow.




^^That was to replace the piece pictured below.
