Clint,
 
Thanks for your reply. I did notice that the header flange practically rests on the heads of the short row of head bolts.All the header bolt holes line up just fine though. Do you remember how close to the firewall the headers got on the passenger side?

Glad to hear you bought some headers for your 66,Larry. On my 68 BB Elky,the Sandersons really weren't too close to anything. However,make sure the head bolts don't have header flange interference. Mine did with the Bowtie alum heads.

Hey Clint,
 
I bought a set of Sanderson's BB3 headers for my 66. With my engine almost complete now, I attached the headers to see how they fit. As you know, the driver's side is real short and drops straight down, whereas the passenger side is much longer and doesn't drop nearly as quickly.
 
From your memory, how close does the passenger side collector get to the firewall? And do you recall any heat or clearance issues?
 
Thanks,
Larry Shouse
