Early A-Body Header Question

Do a search in the Early abody sub-forum./?? ;)

Supposedly somebody used 2 passenger side ones,
and had the exhaust routed from the front of the engine,
on the drivers side, to avoid the steering box issues.

The Dakota type manifolds will NOT work with 3 on the tree.

I know that options for early A-body smallblock headers are pretty much fenderwells, and cutting car, Spitfires, if you can wait a year, and TTIs for a ton of money. What I was wondering is this. I've read here that Dakota exhaust manifolds will fit early A-Bodies and I see that Summit sells shorty headers for Dakotas for $100 or $150. What do you think? Has anyone tried these on their Early A-Body. Might be a nice alternative, or is there a monkey wrench in there somewhere? Mike :scratch:
