Default volvo 5.0, will headers fit?

I plan on installing afr 165, rockers, cam etc. I just wanted to know if u guys think shorty headers will fit. Do they stick out much farther than cast iron exhaust manifolds.its a 1992 h.o motor converted to carb. I got the car from a good friend with 95% of the work already done. Thanks for any help.

I had an 82 wagon with a 360 dodge in it a few years ago. I was able to get shorties in, it was tight but i beleive the 302 is physically smaller so they should fit. Depends on your install/ placement.
They make fun toys especially with a quiet exhaust, stock wheels, etc. Perfect sleeper.

Uhh... did you seriously just estimate Mustang engine compartment space judging by the space you had in your station wagon? [&:]

Long tubes ftw. They're going to be better for your application when you're done the engine

No. It was a volvo wagon with a sbd, what i meant was that the 302 if im not mistaken is physically smaller than the sbd. I was able to get shorties in mine so it shouldn't be a problem with the 302 in there.
Does that clear up my previous statement?
