[Chevelle-list] Time to buy headers

[Clint Hooper]

I installed a set of Sanderson intermediates on my 68 Elky w/BBC and highly
recommend them. One thing to watch is that most intermediate headers won't
clear the Z-bar. Patriots won't and not sure about Hedmans. Pretty sure the
Sandersons will but it wouldn't hurt to ask.
My 68 had a built 700R4 and of course my 69 has a Viper T56. Sanderson's SBC
intermediates will clear my Z-bar cause I've already asked.
