When installing on car I think car should be level. What is the correct way to level the car?
Jacking up one side with hand jack or jacking and placing blocks under front tire to bring car to level.
Might be a dumb question, sorry. Wondering about sprung and unsprung weight when leveling car.
Thanks. Everyone have a safe and happy holiday! smokersrt8

The passenger side can be fun to drill without hitting the manifold or going in at an angle.
Do yourself a favor and buy a long 1/2" drill bit and cover the manifold with a towel.
