Hello,

Anyone using headers with a block that has driver's side dipstick?
Just completed a rebuild for a "010" 350 block, and it has dipstick on a drivers side.
Seems that stock manifolds won't work, any experienses with headers, does for example Edelbrock headers fit, or does someone know headers that fit right in?

I have a 73 350 block with a drivers side dipstick and I'm using Hedman full length headers with no problems. I just got a cheap chrome dipstick from my local parts store. I had to bend the dipstick tube slightly to clear the headers but it was no big deal.

 

My bro has a '74 350 in his '85 SC, flowtech headers fit in fine.

 

I have a 1977 350 in my 91 RS and have hooker shorties with chrome dipstick tube. No problems.

i just installed the edlelbrock TES headers on my car 2 days ago, id say prolyl ANY headers would allow you to run the dip stick whever you see fit

 

I have a block with that same casting in my car. I tried to put in in with the manifolds but wouldnt fit. I got hooker lt headers and it fits fine. I learned after I got the headers that there is a company that makes a flexable dipstick that would work, but if you can afford them headers would be your best option because you also gain power.
