inline 6 header???

Have been looking for a header for 230/250 inline 6 Clifford, Offenhause etc.
Any advice or experience with them on a lowered truck?
Saw some maybe a little long..
Thanks for any input

Re: inline 6 header???

I ran a set of Clifford shorty headers back in the early 1980s. They served me quite well:


Another option is the cast headers by Langdon's Stovebolt. My buddy runs them on his 292.


Both permit a short turn downpipe from the collector that will accommodate for a minimal ground clearance.

Clifford shorties for the good looks and Langdon's for the affordable price. I have a set of clifford shorties and love them. Never had issues.

You risk that problem yes, with any long tube header. The shorties are cheaper and less in the way of the clutch linkage.
