I’ve always heard that you’ll run into fit issues on a 67 big block Camaro with power steering. The pipes will not clear the unit. Does Hooker or any other manufacturer make a set that will clear the power steering unit?
Thanks,

I have Appliance headers on a 67 Camaro with power steering, no clearance issues at all.

Whoever holds the rights to those headers REALLY should make up 100 sets, as I think they would sell well in this restoration area.

Chuck, you didn’t state it but I assume your 67 Camaro is a big block. Isn’t it true that the Appliance brand headers are no longer manufactured?
Thanks all,
