1995 yj 4.3 swap..issues with slave cylinder

[Rj_bigdaddy]

Hey guys. New to the forum. So I have a 1995 yj. I just got done swapping over to a 4.3L motor. I got shorty headers figuring it would be a better flow with the new exhaust. After I got the passenger side done I moved on to the drivers side. Wellllll!!!! I have a issue. The clutch slave is in my way. I'm stuck. I looked up Novak to see what mods they might have but there site does not explain well enough if this is going to solve my issue. I called them. Not much help. I'm not sure if I should try to heat up the end of the header and bent it out to clear it. Or idk. Any advice and pics would help a lot. Please and thank you

Why is the clutch slave mounted there and not in the firewall? Is that the OEM location?

Yes it's the oem location. It can't go anywhere else

I had a '95 YJ and it looked nothing like that. Those aren't even factory bolts holding the clutch slave. The clutch slave should be mounted into the bellhousing.

You're going to need a center dump manifold on that side.

I just made a new bracket instead.
