Hey guys,Building a 351w with afr205's for my 66, its a factory manual tranny car. Does anyone know of ANY swap headers that will clear the factory clutch lever??? Every header I see is for an auto tranny. Looks like I may need to run the hookers with a cable clutch? THanks ------------------

I wondered about that too and after a little head scratching I believe it stands for "stock port location" as opposed to alot of aftermarket heads with raised ports...You can also try FPA headers..They will have a set that will fit your application..There are also hooker 6208 headers.I'm building a similar setup for my 68 so I've been looking for awhile.------------------

ekbeanctr do the 6208s clear your clutch linkage without any tweaking?..I've heard you have to modify (cut and relocate) the bottom part of the Z bar on the 67-68s------------------
