Long Tube Clifford Headers vs short tube - 03/23/10 01:24 PM
A Friend will sell me a new set of Clifford headers for my 65 Nova if I want them.
However they are the long tube type and while new they were a generic version for Car or truck. They are model number 52-1962 and dont go straight down like the truck versions.
Do you think I could get these to fit my 65 with Chevy 250 engine? If so what are the advantages or disadvantages of long versus short headers on this Inline motor. I plan on adding a strong but streetable cam, Offy manifold, some mild head work (T6 Lumps) and 390 four barrel carb.
Is this header unit the right choice versus the shorter model given those parameters???
