For those of you with the OBX header, I have a quick question. How did you bend the egr pipe to meet with the fitting on the header? I cant bend it by hand so I wondered you used, a crow bar, a screw driver, or something else? Thanks

i cut a piece off the EGR pipe, screwed the EGR fitting into the header then took a small piece of high temp heater hose and hose clamps to connect the missing length.

I have this exact header in my 240, i just used breaker bar to bend, didnt damage the egr pipe either, works easier with a longer breaker bar
