Found these, seems some reviews say C10s are what they have them on.

I'm running a standard '70s 350 and a Saginaw 3 speed, will these clear the bellcrank and such? I have it converted to floor shift, so no linkage from the column.

They seem affordable, and I've heard good stuff about Hedman. That said... what is everyone elses take?

Going on a 70 C10 with a 5.5/7 drop 350 V8 3 Speed Saginaw Hurst floorshift.

I just installed them on my 69/350 turbo 400. good headers heaps of room.swapped them for the hedman long tubes i had on (had to modify to fit between the frame rails and around the bottom arms)and were to low for the amount i lowered the truck . Other than that Hedman are good headers.

Those don't look like they'd work with clutch linkage. You need full-length with the rear tube dropping straight down or slightly forward. 3/4 length headers run right through where the bell crank assembly is.

Throw the collector bolts in the trash and get grade 8 with locking nuts. Trust me.
