Hey guys who installed the 5SFE 4-1 header, may it be from Super Toyota or from eBay, did you have to adjust/redrill the bolt near the alternator bracket in the left most part? I have to losen the screw on the bracket, took off the timing belt in order to lift the alternator and insert the header. My problem is I cannot get the timing belt back because the header is now in place. Actually the header is a little too big for the alternator to be where its at before. I ended up installing the stock one again. My hands are very dirty, scraped and tired. I am very disappointed...

did you install the top first or the bottom? do the top first, adjust the alternator, take alternator belt off and slide alternator up, header goes in, move alternator back..your not messing with the timing belt, thats the alternator belt. adjust belt and tighten
