Well, I did a test-fit of the Hedman #62010 headers and they fit very well! Plenty of frame clearance, and no mods needed to my A/C and power steering brackets. I can even run my existing plug wires and right angle boots.

The passenger side collector is very close the the plastic torque dust converter cover, but I'll trim that, and maybe take a rasp to that corner of the trans.

Drivers side collector is centered between oil filter and frame, about 3/4" from both. Wish they would have run the tubes down another 2 inches, but it's no big deal.

I also have to say the welds are first rate, and put to shame others I've seen.

Last photo shows how the #1 tube clears the stock PS pump bracket. The power steering hose is not as close to the tube as it looks.
