Definitely a nice looking donk.
Where did you get the pulley/bracket system?

Headers should have very little impact on the noise level. Its generally the pipe diameter and mufflers after the headers that make the difference.

I called Castle just two weeks ago and they said their headers would NOT fit a LHD with power steering ram so I started to look elsewhere. Was trying to keep it $ in Oz.
Did I speak to the wrong guy??

There is a drop down bracket you can get to lower the ram, which helps some headers fit.
