I recently moved my drivetrain forward 2" to better clear the firewall and give myself a slightly better rear driveshaft angle. The problem I am having now is that the headers I had on it before won't fit now because of how the frame narrows. They were tight before on the drivers side (not to mention rubbed on the shackle bolt on the pass side) but now I can't get the drivers side in at all. After looking closely at it I realized that the driver's side fans out kind of funny but the passenger side tubes stay in line better.:doah: Anyone know of some headers that stay tight together and would clear for me? Every set I've been looking at on Summit and whatnot seem to do the same thing.:confused: I'd like to stick with long tubes but I have to change everything around anyways so it's not a big deal. The biggest thing is that I'd like them to work for now with the 355 but also be good for the roller 383 I plan to put in in the next year or two. I'd also like to keep it under $300...just because I'm cheap:haha:
 
I'll check em out. Like I said (I know it wasn't the most clear wording) but the passenger side fits great still but the drivers side is just too wide the way the tubes come together. Thanks:thumb:
 
I checked some out but they still look like they might be a tad wide. Plus they're pretty proud of them if you know what I mean. Anybody got any more suggestions? I guess another problem is that I'm in Hawaii and shipping is expensive so buying to try is something I'd like to avoid.
 
Thanks dude. Wasn't finding too many specifics when I searched earlier (I swear I searched).
