hi guys just a quick question , the MP HEMI block cast with wedge ears for stock B/RB motor mounts , would you need custom headers or would stock cast iron maniflods / or off the shelf headers fit ?? going in a 69 charger with power steering would appreciate any help

Yes you need a custom header for that block. To be honest with you, I have never seen a wedge eared Hemi block running. I personally mocked up a set of headers on one of those blocks and there was no way in heck that you would ever to get that to work correctly.

Buy a standard Hemi block with Hemi mounts and run a Schumacher (206-364-7151) engine mounts and call it a day.

That is a nice looking car, I love the color.

Do you have pictures of the driver side header and how it goes around the K member.

Thanks
