I got a call at 8:00pm after they worked 10hours all day that they failed and would need to pull the engine to complete the install- they had issues with setting the drivers side header. The holes were not aligning. That is when I went there and for another 5 hours in the dark with minimal lighting/ outside no lift only on jacks the job was complete.
I’m not sure what was removed or not from steering rack I just know it was driving weird afterward and still vibrates today

I did heat wrap the headers and they claim the headers sit very close the the steering rack. I talked to tony at Motordyne today and he feels the engine needs go back up and see if can re set more properly maybe a bit more towards the passenger side and have another look at the steering issue

I hope nothing is bent but I won’t know until I can get a good look at it flouring the daytime.. or go to profession shop here in CA

My poor Z.
P.s- I went there to stop engine from being pulled! I was furious. I went there to make sense of what was going on and why so much trouble. They started from scratch on the drivers side and sure enough bolts and holes lined up. Success

Maybe due to lack of lighting/ tired it was just a combination of all the wrong things adding up. No lights on dash!
