Doug's headers not fitting - frustration

I just wanted you to know, I feel your pain hahaha ‘67 Barracuda, factory V8, motor has never been out. Going on vacation with my family this weekend, and I’ll get back to it next week. I’m going to read through this thread again, and if you have any tips not already mentioned, I’d appreciate them.

You can cut the column tube back to help some with that but that means you're going to be taking the column out and apart.

Is it too late to back out and go back to manifolds? LOL.

That reminds me at one time I had a 67 Dart GT 273 with headers on it, and it seems like they were big tubes. I need to search those photos out to see what was done there.
