I'll bet a set of block-hugger headers would work pretty nice. If you go that route,let me know how they work;I'd like to run headers on my '62 one ton,but I can't afford to try out more than one set,so block huggers are what I'm planning to try. The hard part is likely to be fitting the pipes where you go past the crossmember the torsion bars hook to. I just don't see a clean,easy way past that crossmember. A lot of pipe builders just go below it then back up,but that little detour tends to catch every bad spot in the road. (maybe make the dropped sections out of 2 inch plumbing pipe elbows?)
