citcapp I visted with you last spring about my project installing a 455 motor in a 57 2 dr s88 HT. got side tracked over the summer now back at it but could not find the info that you had given to me. It had to do with the exhust on the left side hitting the steering box! As I recall you told me the name of the headers that you used to help with the problem. could you give me that info. again. Thanks Al

 

Not sure what brand Pat referred you to but I am going to guess Sanderson Headers, expensive but custom cut. Good luck with your transplant! Keep us posted.

These are the headers that clear. As I stated you have to offset the 455 1.5" to the passenger side to clear the steering box

I remembered about the offset just couldn't remember the name of the headers or manifolds. do they clear everthing else after you move the motor over? thanks for the update Al

 

Yes, tight but clear everything just fine. Did my install two years ago and its great.
