I'm looking for a set of headers that will work with my 460 and very VERY limited space. I know Sanderson make block hugger headers but not sure if even they will fit. If anyone has fit headers on these large motors please provide some details.

Thanks!

Thanks Boss. My truck is a 4x2 but I'm concerned with the clearance on the drivers side due to the 73 column and powersteering setup. Not much room on that side and those hookers looks big. They also look sexy! I think it is time to take measurements.

Summit claims that hooker header will not work but I think i will measure the space and see for myself.

I'd check with the bumpside and dentside forums and see what those guys are using on their 460s.
