460 Question

Have a 460 eng with a mustang two front end. Received my Sanderson Headers a couple of days ago. My eng will go in when I get it back from the machine shop in a couple of weeks. Just installed my brakes with Through the Frame Fittings for the front brakes. My friend today told me he didnt know if the Headers will fit because of the Fittings. The fittings stick off the frame about an inch or inch and 1/2. Anybody can tell me if this will have enough clearance?????????

I wish you the best on your new project. I'm from the old school before computers and fuel injection and such a project would give me quite a headache.

If you were really "Old School", you would have kept the Flatmotor.
