For all you that have a /6 truck and can't use Clifford shorties because the rear set of headers hits the starter (low starter): get a set of Clifford shorties (high starter) and take the rear set and chop the bend out, thus making them exit straight down, and weld them back together. It's a little gut wrenching to put a set of Clifford headers on the band saw and start chopping, but the end result is something very close to Clifford's low starter headers (which are no longer sold). I just did this two days ago and it turned out great. I'll post some pictures soon of how they came out. I know there are a few guys out there right now looking for truck headers...
