It's late, I am beat, but I wanted to get this out there and let you see how close I got to success on put 351w headers in a bump. The Hedman 88650 was close, DAMN close to being the ones to use. The side clearance was incredible but they hit the cab in the back. I couldn't get the driver side on completely and the passenger fit but only has .125" between the cab and the tube. I will give a more complete description soon,
Update: Sanderson FF6-P fit great! Plus they came with an angled flange that will allow for all kinds of adjustment. They look like professional hand made one off's and are heavy material. They also have good installation instructions and come with header bolts.
