i would Say bolting to the heads ..NO...but clearance from there down who knows..
many of us has seen headers that suppose to clear chassis that do not ( off shelf).

good luck and lets hope you do not have to go with custom header work.

Nothing left to do but try what you have,

thanks

Thanks for the info i appreciate it. Did you run aluminum or iron Pro Top Line heads? How did your 572 run? My 505 is getting there i have the short block together, heads are assembled, when i get some time i'll get back out there i have to measure and see what length pushrod i need.
