Looking for some help. I have a 68 W200 Sweptline Power Wagon with the 383. Having trouble finding headers that will work with this truck. Some are close but won't work with manual tranny or PTO. Anyone have any experience with this issue or any suggestions/advice?

Because of the crossmember with the hydraulic clutch they will not clear. I have a friend who is very good with a mig and had a cutoff wheel. He managed to shorten them enough and get them welded back solidly with no leaks and clearance to get around the crossmember. It would be much easier and probably cheaper in the long run to just use a good set of shorty headers. Unfortuaely I did not bookmark the add for the ones here in the Couve.
