Just got in and it looks like I am going to have to "dink" my new headers to get them round the starter. :crybaby: Wish I would have had a trial fit before coating them.
S`pose I should be grateful its only the one dink.
I fitted some headers to a 69 Cougar eliminator manual once,the things were nearly flat once I`d got them round the steering box and clutch linkage

you should try the buggers on pinkie !! no dinks, but they're so big that the motor has to be lifted 18" up before they'll come out !

My cheap headers fit perfect!..... Been in for 4 years now. NEVER a problem! How much were they? ?90 New. I will get another set and have them coated one day.

I had to saw a bit off the block to get mine in!!! I say saw because I couldn't get an angle grinder down there, took me 4 hours

"A dink"? Mine look like they've been run over ....
That said I might as well wait till they fall apart before I replace them - looking pretty doesn't make you go faster
