well i stick it in, adn it hits the reed valve, or either hits brake lines down at the bottom. Once it was hitting the wires going to the fuse box. Did you try to stick it in from the top or from underneath the truck? Also did you just stick it straight in, or was it turned sideways goin in and and then you twisted it the right way? thanks!

I fit it in there without removing/moving anything. Just takes patience and the right angle. If you have to, you can start removing stuff that gets in your way. Take the reed valve off the engine if necessary. You will have to take it off the engine eventually to mount it on the header.
