Header Help!

I have an 1986 C10 with a factory 4 speed with a hydraulic clutch. I'm in the middle of doing a motor swap. I putting a ZZ4 on it. I mocked up the Sanderson Headers.

https://www.sandersonheaders.com/san...eader-set.html

They don't clear. I reached out to Sanderson before I purchased them. I just sent another e-mail this morning. Does anyone have any insight?

Thank you

I forgot to mention that is lowered approximately 5 inches in the front. Trying to find a header set that does hang below the frame rail.

I don't have any tech to offer but I do have some Sanderson shorties (#bb8) on a Blazer with a 454 and hydraulic 4spd that fit perfect. Do your headers look like the sites pic (misboxed?)? Where is the interference? Factory hydraulics?

I have a NV833 manual trans. Where the clutch slave cylinder mounts. It's directly in the way for running exhaust. I'll shoot some pics this afternoon.

Re: Header Help!

Not sure if they'd make enough difference but did you see the angled collectors (pipe side) that Sanderson offers?

It could be that your running the A833 transmission. This transmission is so obscure and rarely found that manufacturers probably have no idea how to make stuff to fit around it.

The A833 transmission is a beast on its own unfortunately.
