what headers u have? not many i know of have clearance problems with the motor mounts.

usually u can get both in from uptop depending type and size.

 

i had to take my engine mount bolts out and raise it up a little, to get the driver side to drop in, these were hedmans.

they huggers

 

If you mean "block huggers" forget it. It isn't going to happen.

They won't fit, and more than likely they have center dump outlets.

 

This is what I am thinking. You need headers that are desing to fit in a 3rd gen engine bay. Any small block headers will not work. They will bolt to the motor but won't clear anything found under the hood of a 3rd gen, including motor mounts.

 

Hey shiftycapone.....your "NewSite" link doesn't work....Says server not found.

 

Yea you are right... Thanks for the heads up. Looks like they are getting an email.

 

i got my blockhuggers to on my 3rd-gen i welded 1'' plate on the motor mount brackets.
