Re: Exhaust header question

I have a 56 with a straight axle front end, stock steering box and a power brake booster mounted under the floor and I can tell you in all honesty that these headers are not going to fit. It may look like there is a lot of room in that engine bay but on the drivers side, you're limited on headers. The only ones that I can confirm that will fit for this application is Edelbrock . The tubes for the last 2 cylinder bend towards the center, giving you greater clearance around the steering box and the brake pedal and booster. One of the many reason I went with 2 1/2" ram horns instead
