Clarence issues

Hey guys, I have a 86 F150 XLT Lariat. I have so many plans and ideas for the truck! But first I just need to get her on the road again, everything mechanically is awesome thanks to Oreillys and some time off. Now my problem is the exhaust, I bought a set of long tube headers off Craigslist off a bronco. The passenger side header ends about 6" from the tranny support. Is a mufflershop going to charge me extra to put in all those bends? Does anyone else have this problem? Thanks!

Welcome to FTE, Bryan.

You'll have to ask the local muffler shops about their labor rates for this kind of work.

You might read the following, see if it helps you at all:
