Jerry,
a couple of things you may want to do now that you have the longtubes in. The wiring you have going down the frame above the longtubes and secured with plastic tiewraps needs to be heatwrapped to prevent insulation damage/arcing.

I had this same issue after fitting the custom headers that I made (melted the tiewraps off while running in the shed). What you are likely to find is that if you dont do this the tiewraps will melt off and the wiring will get damaged. This is more of an issue when the car is stationery rather than out on the track.

Kel.
