Just some ideas/guesses on areas of concern...
-The motor mounts are way different A to B/E body. Just one thing poking out in the wrong direction could justify a specific design.
-I think the suspension linkage on an E/B body sets further forward or there is more room for the header/headpipes to move back. This is why you can run long quick ratio "T/A" pitmans and idlers on a E/B with stone stock and some headers. But on an A-body you can't, the pitman/idleer/centerlink will run into the headpipe or header down tubes.
-Also IF (just an IF) the engine sit for and aft different in relationship between the steering box there could be an issue there too between A and B/E. The TTI headers snake around the steering box, especially power steering.
Now, maybe there is still room on a E/B for these A-body headers without long pitman. I dunno. Just suggesting those are three areas that jump out at me for concern that you might start measuring first.

Call TTI and ask them.
If they worked, I would imagine they would sell the same P/N for multiple chassis.
