What headers can be made to work with the `57?  Not looking to buy Crites, as they drop below the crossmember and wont work with a lowered car very well.  Someone, somewhere has to know something........ :hurricane:

Crites has long tube headers but they have ground clearance issues.If I were to have a street car I would go with the shorties.I do have a set that I got years back that work with a C4 only.Plus the motor needs to be forward more in the bay.They are 2 1/8 inch long tube.
