Clifford Headers?

Has anyone put Clifford headers on their 300? I got mine on and when I went to put everything back on I found that now the alternator bracket no longer fits due to the size of the headers 6th tube. Has anyone had this problem and if anyone has a solution please let me know.

I have heard that there can sometimes be interference with the alternator bracket and headers. Just put a pair on mine but I don't think they are Cliffords. Only option is to alter bracket or bend in the header pipe.

Luckily my friends father is a machinist and took the bracket to the Bridgeport and now it fits perfectly, and the cut looks like thats how it came from the factory. Drove it to go get exhaust put on it and it had a good deal more power from the headers.

It would be nice if they let you know of this possibility, but oh well.

A friend of mine gave me his old ones but I don't know the brand name. They bolted right up with no interference. They are about 10 years old though. It's a split manifold design.
