Exhaust headers for 292 ? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thinking about these, since I am fed up with the stock manifold - such a piece of crap.

Hoping these from Speedway Motors will work, just not sure if anyone here has had fit issues:

Anymore pics?

No issues with the clutch linkage?

The Langdons look nice, are they much better?

I am running a hydraulic clutch set up (1960) So no issues . Let me dig up the instructions ,I believe there is a slight mod if you are running a stock clutch linkage. I liked the long tubes but the lack of ground clearance made some driveways and roads a no go, and my truck isn't that low

Mine is stock height, seems like it would not be an issue for me. Just worried about that linkage clearance.
