alright heres my? i want to run hedmans full length headers but theres a note that says you have to run a TH350. both jegs and summit cat tell me what they interfer with. ive got a world class T5 from a camaro freshly built that i hate to give up. is it a minor fab issue or do i have to rebuild the header? I love a 5 speed behind a v8.

On the s w/a t-350 it makes more room if you cut the ears off the bell on the tranny. Knowing that I would think its because the clutch linkage parts will be inthe way as ther in the same general area that the ears are on a t-350.

I have headers on my blazer w/t-5 but I hacve conversion shorty headers - Not long tube headmans. The 2wd I did had stock log manifolds except 1 it had fenderwell headers.

fenderwells would be your best bet.

No headers will fit without modification when your trying to use a camaro T5.



No shorties will, let alone longtubes.



They\'ll all hit the bellhousing mount for the clutch slave cylinder.
