The stock linkage will fit. Put the headers on 1st then clutch bell crank and you'll be fine.

It'll be tight. lol You can take a hammer to the headers to move them a little but do be careful. lol

When I bought my 65 it had a 292 with headers and everything fit without modifications. It was a close fit but it worked fine. If I was a little smarter it would still be in the truck.
