Default Borgeson steering system
Okay so I'm getting ready to put in a Borgeson system in my 79 and was curious if I should expect any kind of fitment issues with headers

I am guessing that it really depends on which headers you have. Mine are a set of one-off headers that were built really tightly around and LS motor when I had the steroids system in place. I took that off and replaced it with a born-box. In my case I had to ding one primary a small amount to clear the box. (no big deal)

I'm looking about maybe going with the basic Summit Racing headers they seem to have good reviews for the price

I have Summit G9003 headers, clear my Borgeson fine, only needed a slight bump around the clutch cross shaft.

Mine's an automatic so I don't have to worry about the clutch
