Suitable shorty headers chevy 350

I'm trying to find an alternative for the dax exhaust system. However I found out that there's little room for the headers. I've tried shorty 'block huggers' but the outlet is right down by the chassis rail and leaves little room for connecting the sides pipes.

Has anyone got some advice on which headers will fit?

Thanks!

Patrick

RE: Suitable shorty headers chevy 350

I think to use shorty type headers you'd probably need to have an under floor system.

Thanks, you're right regarding the block higgers.

But I can't believe that there's no shorty header with a configuration that enables side pipes!

RE: Suitable shorty headers chevy 350

Hi Patrick,

Im in a similar situation to yourself, my plan at the moment is to cut up some headman headers and bodge them to the side pipes, which really is a temporary solution until I change my engine.

After that Im looking at using flexy exahust pipe, or maybe even get some custom made, will be cheaper than Daxs......

cheers

Based on the picture, the smog headers from flow tech (Holley) might fit.

However the guy at Holley is not able to provide dimensions, he can only give me information on the vehicles it will fit in (and a Tojeiro is not on the list ).
