Hey guys,
Had to take the head off my x1 to fix a broken exhaust stud. Everything is almost back together, but the force header doesnt appear to fit in the port.

I cant get any nuts onto the back clamp because the pipe doesnt go into the head at all. I'm using the 65324-83a gasket.

Help is very much appreciated,
Thanks,
David

I had the same problem with that p.o.s. Force on my M2, though mine was probably warped due to me having to weld the worthless thing for the third time. Put the pipe into/ loosely bolt onto the rear head first and you'll have more leverage/ easier access to the front exhaust port.

(Just realized this is a month old, but maybe it'll help somebody else anyhow.)
