| Post subject: | Clifford shorty's & Low starter |
Does anyone know if the Clifford shorty headers will work with the low V-8 starter location. I have a new set of the 63-66 A-body long tube headers and if I go with a 4-speed and my V-8 blow proof, I don't think they will work. I may be wrong on all accounts too! If you have any info on this i'd appreciate it. I will be ok with an automatic for now, but If I install my 4-speed I don't want to have to alter the rear header. I might as well swap someone for a set of shorty's. Since these are new and obsolete I should be able to trade them I would guess. Rick |

I believe that they will clear the low mount Rick. If you ever make it that far I have a set of shorties that will be laying around as soon as the Daytona is done. You're welcome to try them. |

I thought they would. I really like how mine fit in the car, but I hate to cut up new headers if I don't need too. I sure appreciate the offer Dennis. Rick Dan I could always park on large hills!!

Rick, I have a set of shortys I would gladly trade you if you get to that point. I don't know if yours will fit with that bell/starter, and I rather doubt it if they are the headers I'm imagining. Keep us up on your progress... Lou |

Lou, Mine are the long tubes like Ron Hamby has on his Dart where the front 3 tubes go down through the K frame. I'll let you know when I get ready to do something for real! Rick |

Ooo. I'm not a fan of those due to the ground clearance issue and haven't looked at them too hard. They may actually work for your application. I would have to look at them before trading. Will definitely look at Hagerstown. Sorry if I got you excited... I also have a set of truck headers where the rear one could possibly work or be made to w/o much trouble. Lou |

I wasn't excited. I'd really like to run mine. I'll just have to see once things are in the car. Rick |
