It's not the exhaust but the actual header pipes that can be in the way with a column shift...I recall the 70s as having some sort of column hook up even though they are a floor shift..I never realized this until I mounted a tach on the column of my 70..When I shifted it out of park the tach turned on the column!

I was playing with the shifter on the floor and nothing moved on the column, so would that mean these headers wont work?

I read the whole page i don't see anything about a column shift on there?If it was me i would buy the headers and whatever muffler i want let a local exhaust shop do the rest of the piping.
