Guess I'm just a redneck hack like everyone else in Indiana and I'll keep the rest of my opinions to myself.
When the headers were finally attached the engine at BES, who was originally going to dyno this boosted "That's another story", you’d think someone would have noticed that the holes don’t line up.

Can the alignment issue be easily fixed? YES. Should I have to fix it? No, but I will.

Did you actually see all 8 header bolts inserted through each of the header flanges?
Did you see the turbos mocked up?
Did you see any valve covers on the mock heads Joey used while building my headers?

In all the pictures sent me, the only pictures with valve covers "stock style" were sent after the headers were bolted up to the engine at BES with most likely 2 end bolts.
