Who is using shorty headers?
I was installing my headers this weekend and ran into trouble. I have headman elite coated headers which normally would fit, but I used the 1/2 lowering motor mounts and not they hit the steering box which I could fix with a BFH. I still would have a problem with installing the new clutch cable with the late model bellhousing. My thought is to switch to shorty headers and that way I could clear the steering gear and would only have the exhaust pipe to clear by the bellhousing. Who is using shorty headers and what kind? Would the stock header style manifolds off the late 80's early 90's mustangs work?
Thanks

I have RMP 1/2" lowered mounts and a clutch cable on my 66 fastback. I went with Headman mid-length headers. I wanted a 5/8" primary, ceramic coated header that would fit and they fit perfectly. The #7 tube is a little strange in how it loops over the top, but they clear everything. Summit says they fit a 351w, so I thought they may have more clearance and they do:
