When I get my engine build started I am using hedman headers 68301 long tubes. From what I have heard they fit good without modifications, and they are available in ceramic coting it's just a slightly different part number. They are also carb approved if you live in a pollution control area like I do

I have a 1971 and I just ordered the Headman 62306 ( https://www.summitracing.com/int/par...2306/overview/ )
because they are supposed to fit without any hammering. They work with straight or slant plugs and fit around the Z bar if you have a manual. waiting to get the block back from the machinist to confirm.

I looked up that part on the website and it does show this disclaimer.
100 - Will not fit steering damper inside front crossmember.
I dont know if that will cause interference or not.

I would just go with the 68301 because they are specifically designed for c3 corvettes not just any 350 chevy

My 79 has Hooker Super Comp headers that I took and had ceramic coated. I have a stock starter and it's a 4spd. I have no fitment issues and have not had any problems with the starter getting hot and not working correctly.
