I actually just assumed he was making a hilarious joke about the fact it doesn't have a downpipe yet, so I'd have flames coming out the bottom to burn through the lower coolant hose :lol:

But no there will be clearance between the manifold and the top coolant hose. It's just the angle of that engine bay pic that gives an illusion of them being too close to one another ;-)
