headers with a 6/7 drop?
I know this topic has been beat to death! Ive searched and I cant get a definte answer. What headers are you guys runnin with a wicked static drop or laying fram with bags on your square bodies? I had summit long tubes on my last truck and they hung way to low! Just trying to figure out my build. I saw the chevelle headers but im not sure. And what do you guys do for true dualls. thanks great site! PS its on a 83 shortbed. With a sbc thanks again!

Re: headers with a 6/7 drop?
3/4 length headers for a Malibu/Chevelle or Camaro/Firebird headers will work but might require some trimming of the frame. I have 3/4 length Chevelle headers on my RetroRod (468bbc) & used 1 5/8" Headman 3/4 length headers on my 68 (350sbc). I also had 3/4 length headers for a Camaro in there w/o issue. My buddy just bought them from me & installed them onto his 350sbc in a 72 2wd Blazer. The collector flanges are about equal to the bottom of the cab floor (they do not hang below the frame).
