Headers Recommendation 1970 350 ci Orig floor 4 speed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HI, perhaps I can get a recommendation on swapping out my long tube headers to short ones. Truck sits too low to the ground and scrapes on my driveway. Gotta fix it. I am thinking short headers (block huggers) and new exhaust to fit.

Any ideas? I want to make sure tubes clear both the clutch lever assembly and cross member.

Thanks,
Brian

I am not in the header camp, prefer Rams Horns. Please think about moving your fuel filter up top closer to the carb. Good luck on your project.

Thank you BlackHornet, yes, I thought about standard manifolds too, hard to argue against that point. Thanks for the tip on the fuel filter as well!
