My system installed pretty easily, however the emergency brake cable rubs on the bottom side of the exhaust pipes. If I ran the cable over the top, it would rub on the top side even worse than on the bottom side. Recently Norm Brady had a pair of emergency brake cable brackets listed on eBay. The illustration showed them mounting further forward on the underside of the car. Using these, there would be 4 brackets to hold the cables above the exhaust pipes. I looked under my car and the 3" pipes looked bigger in diameter than the ones Norm had illustrated. It didn't seem like the extra 2 brackets would help my problem. I sent Norm an email asking if his illustration showed 2-1/2" diameter pipes, but I got no response, so I didn't bid on them. Possibly some of our other members can let us know how their cables fit....Brian '64 Belvedere Woodstock, IL. I know I'll probably have to live with a little rubbing with the E-brake cable. But, it's pretty bad at the moment. I think the X-pipe may be a little more prone to this than the H-pipe. With the extra bends of the "X", it's hard to really tuck the pipes up close when they pass the transmission crossmember (where the E-brake cable is). With the H-pipe being a series of relatively straight pipes, a couple of bends can tuck it up close to the floor pan and provide more room for the cable. One thing that I have discovered is that the "slips" that complete the "X", and slide onto the header collectors, have a very subtle curve difference. A couple of members mentioned that to me and I checked it out last night. I don't know if that is intentional, but plan on swapping them side to side to see if some of the alignment issues go away. The directions didn't address this other than putting a "L" and a "R" on the diagram. The slips weren't marked as such so I figured they were the same. Additional cable guides would probably help with cable clearances. Back in the day, I think smaller diameter pipe and single exhaust went a long way towards keeping clear of the cables. And with the hi-po engines and dual exhaust, I imagine rubbing cables were the price of doing business.
