Which long tube header that is not TTI suck the least?

I tried shifting engine around. Forgot to mention the driver side header was also rubbing the steering column “manual box car”. Shift engine to far to passenger side would mess with torsion bar clearance to far to drivers would rub on steering column. Bad set of headers perhaps. Waited 4 months for them outa the states. Didn’t wanna even say the word Doug’s let alone call them and fight over it and returning. They are bolted in just not what I expected. Head of tti needing zbar mods had I known Doug’s were the same on 4speeds I wouldn’t have ever bought them. Last part I wanna butcher is my zbar . Oh well live and learn

Ok but did you try actualy tilting the engine alitle? By lifting the driverside slightly using shims (this works with the older style mounts,not with the later style there are other solutions for those) you could have gained alitle clearance by the steering column at the same time as you would have gained clearance down by the the passanger side torsionbar,effectivly helping you with two of your isues,this could also create other isues but sometimes it works..May not have been the end all solution but could have helped,its about seeing things threedimensionaly.
I guess things are what they are now but lets hope this can help someone else that runs into the same problems.

Said it before,but i worked with exhaust for along time and after noticing some things i started taking notes of things that didnt seem right with primarily older musclecars and i wish i would have kept that notebook,with all those measurements.
