I had no problems w/E heads/spark pug and ppheader interference. Just need patience and an extra send of arm joints for 5/7. Or just yank the starter. (low deck/manual trans)

I made the mistake of trying to use a set of the original Pro Part headers on my 1969 383 Dart GTS 4 speed car they where not designed to be used on low decks in A bodys High deck motors only I'm not sure about the new ones Mazolini is selling now I ended up buying a set of the MustangEDITED, There Maddod headers, not Mustangs, sorry ) two inch low deck headers for that car, I haven't gotten around to swapping them into the Dart yet, maybe this spring I'm planning on installing them to check the fit and if I like them I will take them back off and have them coated black like the Pro Parts are now

yep, weren't designed to fit ld motors. reformatted #7 downpipe to clear clutch linkage (stock) and double gaskets, other than that they fit ok

I use the same set of Pro Parts headers on both 383 and 440 in my car.Only plugs that are harder than the rest are 5 and 7,which I get from under the car.

I've used a set of Hooker fenderwell two inch primary pipe on both my 1971 Duster with two different motors,440 and 400 stroker, with Eddy RPM heads and the 1969 Dart with a 440 with iron heads and the 383 before taking them off I would put the heads on and try the headers, worst case scenario is there are problems Probally not as no one has bruoght that up on here that I can remember Maybe that is why no one has said anything else
