block hugger headers
Have the option to buy a set of block hugger headers. My 74 SB is converted to right hand drive and the steering box protrudes out into the space to the right of the block. So I need to know how far these headers come out from the block to see if I can fit them past the steering box.

What headers are they? Not all block huggers will clear the steering box.
Just curious - when the right hand drive conversion was done, was the engine moved over to the left side an inch or so? The engine is normally offset to the right, so there would normally be less room on the right side of the car for headers.
