Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Can you keep the headers by using a u-joint a notching the frame a bit?

Great headers I'm very impressed. Only header I could find specific for our trucks. May be more but I could never find any Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks for the pics, can you get me a pic of where the collector drops down so I can see how much ground clearance they have.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks buddy
I don't think so, I would probably have to modify the truss on the dropmember too which I don't want to do. If I can find a set of headers that hug the block a little closer I would rather just swap headers. I'll send a picture to Nate and see if he possibly has a solution.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Please post up some part numbers when you find a good "Dropmember friendly" set of headers.
I need this info also.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
I know that headers look great and there are the obvious performance gains but what about a set of late 60's manifolds, maybe for a Chevelle. They dump at the rear and with a little smoothing and coating look great. Just a suggestion.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Thanks buddy I appreciate it, I'm just a little frustrated. I think the Sanderson BB8 will work because they suck in closer to the block on the driver side. They also look as if they don't dump out too low. I'll know more after I take some measurements this weekend. I'm currently looking for a place that doesn't have a restocking fee on returns because if I order directly from Sanderson they have a 15% restocking fee. If I have to send them back I don't want to have to pay that.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
If you decide to go Sanderson I have nothing but good things to say about them. Super high quality and very nice. I had mine coated because it was cheaper then buying there thermal coating. I think I paid close to 350 for raw headers through eBay with free shipping.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Worked on the truck a little today. After speaking to Nate and seeing some pics of the steering shaft setup I'm confident I won't have any issues with the clearance around the headers for the steering shaft. Also helps that I didn't have the motor centered in the frame
