Re: Which headers don't bottom out

You don't need to buy $1,000 custom headers. Someone will come along with an off the shelf header. This is a common problem on low manual trucks. The automatic guys just run 3/4 length. But those run right through the clutch linkage. My buddy neighbor Eddie built his '68, 4/6 drop, 4spd and tossed a set of old headers he had laying around and they run above the bottom of the frame. Frustrating. I asked what brand they were so I could offer help here and he said, "I dunno". so, just get a set of those
