LS3 header options with mechanical clutch 69 Camaro

[CROMAN69Z28]

Looking for a header recommendation for my Camaro. Z-bar is in the way. Anyone have an off the shelf option? I’d rather buy a header than go hydo. Thanks.

The question begs to be asked. Why use a mechanical linkage?

Because I already have it. Was running sbc with T-56 and have since built an LS3. I am still using the McLeod adapter and original linkage that has been there since I went 6 speed. I’d much rather find headers to work, or make some fit, than go through the pain of hydro clutch.

The issue is that I don't know of any company that designed LS swap headers with mechanical linkage in mind. Most people that do a LS swap go with hydraulic clutch actuation.

You are correct. At least it’s not a feature mentioned in any description. I know somebody has solved this puzzle before and hoping they will chime in with an easy solution. I have some eBay specials that I am planning to chop and tig if no other option is found. Basically crossing my fingers until I have time to cut them up and make my own.
