    Which headers fit the bill?

    I have a 1970 Road Runner with a stroked 440 in front of a Tremec 5 speed. I'm trying to figure out which headers I should order. What brand and type do you have and how well do they fit and perform? If you have photos, that would be great to see any clearance issues.
