Default Steeroids and Headers

I have some issues fitting my headers. The Steeroids bracket is blocking!
The headers are old and all beaten up.

Does anyone have experience with 454, headers and Steeroids? Maybe recommend a fitting header?

cajos, suggest you call VBP they have a help desk and people who work fitting of R & P system. I recently installed Streeroids on my 75 (great product no more stering boxes). I remember in the instructions that with headers there was some grinding involved. No sure where but may have been on noe of the mounting barckets. Nice mod good luck.

I used Hooker Super Comps and Steeroids on my big block build up this spring. The only problem I had was the Steeroids bracket being too close to the Milodon oil pan. Trimmed bracket slightly and problem resolved.

Search this forum for "She's 40 today, getting a heart transplant" for a lot of details on what will fit.

When I order some new powder coated headers, I would like to make sure I don't have cut and re-weld it.
