Can anybody have any help? I'm doin a 62 Chevy II with a heidt's style front end, I put in a 454 and have had problems finding a descent set of headers that wont cost me an arm and a leg! I've talked to Lemons Headers, Tried a set of block huggers, early camaro/nova headers were pretty close but hung down to far. The car will sit pretty low and ground clearance is a problem, I've already raised the motor bout an inch. Someone mentioned S&S Headers, It sucks cuz you dont know till ya get em if they fit. If I can get something close I dont mind cuttin and movin a pipe or something.

Heres some pics of the car....http://www.streetsourcemag.com/ViewOwnerProfile.aspx?ProfileID=29533

Take a look at Sanderson - I'm using a pair of the C5 headers in my 55 Chevy w/BB and they seem to clear everything (not stock steering) and they have good ground clearance. They are 1-7/8" primaries and have a good flanges (3/8" I think). -Bob
