He didn't even look at me. We joked about it later, saying he probably thought it was smoke from the tail pipe.

Do you think you could do me a big favor if it's not too inconvenient? I'm looking for some headers for a 302 swap that fit very tightly to the block, and I like the BBK stuff. Can you measure from the flange at the head to the furthest point the tubes stick out towards the frame? And the collector at its furthest point from something significant on the block?
Can do ! I will be pulling the engine back out soon. I'll try and get measurements this week. Hope that will work.
