since its more about perch and frame clearance; it ends up being trial and error. seems like too many of the "swap" headers either exit straight down (hitting the perches) or the tubes come out too wide or drop out too low (past crossmember)

Sanderson shorties have been said to work, the DT headers are a proven fit, and TBSS manifolds fit great but flow a bit less than the other two. There are a few more, but those are "known" to work.
