I trial fitted a set of hedman 78030's in a 383 69 A & the pass side fit fine w a slight amt of grinding where the collector touched the block and the drivers side needed 2 tubes to be relocated (#3/#5 iirc) & iirc the rear tube (#7) fit OK but had room to be lengthened to make it more equal length. I did not finish this & went w HP manifolds.

I'd be surprised if there wasn't one or two sets in the big block parts for sale section here. They're in the ~$250 range. Andy made 550 HP w a 470 w alum heads & these 68-70 HP ex manifolds & mandrel 3" head pipes, so they can work.
