The old "Headers on my '67" question

I know this has been covered b4 but I can't find it. I'm tryin' to put Hedman long tube headers on my '67 standard 3 on-the-tree pickup. Just put the rebuilt engine back in and bolted it down. Cannot come from the top on either side. Should I lift the engine back out 1/2 way and try or should I jack it up and come from the bottom?

Can someone supply some pics?

Don't wanna put my ramhorn manifolds back on.

When I put my Headmans on I had to disconnect the tranny linkage (auto) on the drivers side and come come up from the bottom.

I always come from the bottom with headers much easier.

You will have to go from the bottom for sure, as well as disconect your clutch linkage. I had to actually move my pivot bolt to the rear hole on the engine, similar to a Camero set up, other than that they fit pretty well.
