I run the hedman 79250 truck header. even run my plug wires behind the tubes with wire routing same as center dump manifolds. they do not hang below frame rail and I run 3" pipes/muffs
ball/cone collectors, tucks up tight, good fit in chassis, easy install, R&R mini starter header in place.
IIRC, same as the Bouchillon BB truck swap headers.

Its a lowered truck, so they need to tuck up pretty tight to the floor board. I have a set of new Hedman Elites for the trucks on there now and they hang down too low. Do the Hooker super comps tuck up tight? Passenger side is above the bottom of the frame rail. Drivers side is about 7" below floor board, it hangs below frame rail. I assume this is for r&r of starter.
Ask me my opinion of Frank Mitchell....... A Mopar crook!

Hedman 79220 - My engine support brackets are home made and the 3" collectors are now 3.5" The front sits allmost on bump stops and they are low, but the biggest problem is, that they sit below transmission pan, so fitting a deep pan is a problem. Not sure, maybe with 3" collectors, there's no problem, but it will be close. I do not use stock starter, I think it would not fit with these headers but not 100% sure. Kind of a pain, not enough room between engine and frame. Next ones, I probably make them so the collector is outside the frame rails. Everything is lot easier this way.
