Re: hedman headers part #69010 *issue resolved by manufacturer*

Ctentime, thanks for your interest in this thread, but as mentioned before the motor is in the correct position. If it is wrong, it was wrong from the factory, and geezers is also in the wrong spot. If i were to move the motor forward enough to clear the floor pan, id have to redrill the frame for the motor stands, lengthen the drive shaft, re-engineer the shift linkage, then my cooling fan would be in to the radiator, etc, etc, and on and on. I dont know what year truck you have, but the 67-72 trucks are different than the 73-87 trucks. On a side note, i received info that hedman had redesigned these particular headers recently due to the amount of fitment complaint issues they have received and maybe you have one of those sets. Hopefully the 2nd generation headers will fit much better, its also nice to see a company take the feedback from their customers and try to redevelop a product with less issues.
