Something else? What'd you use, and what problems did you run into? Will it help if I offset my motor mounts slightly to the passenger side? Tips on front-rear spacing, or just so the trans and dizzy will clear? Cheers, mark. '51 KY 3100 www.alltel.net/hd99fxst/ | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | Some of this is addressed in the "Block Hugger Problem" thread on this forum. The answer though is dependent on your budget and preference. Anything can be made to work but there are compromises that have to be made with anything that is not a "stock" set up. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,554 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,554 | If you have a good speed shop in your area,give them a visit.When you go,make sure you know just what dimensions you need for clearance.They are usually very knowlegable,and will reccomend something.Blockhuggers take up very little space,as do the ramshorn manifolds.If you are really into HP and speed the full length headers have better scavenging action.Of course they take up a lot more room. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 866 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 866 | I bought a set from Street and Performance. They look like the Camaro style headers, swept to the back instea.d of straight down like most block huggers. They sent me the steering side headers tack welded, for me to fit before the welded everything up. That way I could make adjustments to the headers to fit properly. Yes they were more expensive, but they fit first time, no pounding on them at all | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 311 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 311 | coach-frank,

Always get a 2nd opinion, especially if I am the source of the 1st opinion.
