First Gen swap header?
Looking into a SBC swap in a first gen car, I am looking to do this with the absolute lowest priced "shelf" parts I can find and build the mounts myself etc... I have the abilities and materials to make the firewall move back a few inches and have no problem doing so if needed.
The engine is a +.030 400 with Dart heads, a fairly big mechanical roller cam and a Weiand Team G single plane (similar to a Victor JR) with a hillbilly built 750 dual feed double pumper (Not a Holley anymore as it uses more aftermarket parts than Holley brand
)
I was looking for header info (and in case anyone says "typing header in the search menu will answer this" I want to work on the car before I burn my retinas out scanning a gajillion pages of header Q's)
Looking at the Granny photos (since we know he builds little) I think I may have found headers I can use, but I would like to verify the design.
This is what I found:

Does anyone have experience with a similar setup?
