This is an issue with which I will need to deal eventually, as I foresee a Clevor in my not-too-distant future...so I have a question:

It seems that with the differences between various replicas, designing and building a set of headers must require that the car be onsite so the headers can be custom-fit to the specific replica's dimensions. For example, the 5.0 small block in my replica is mounted with the engine well forward of the firewall...yet I see photos of others with the rear of the block almost touching the firewall.

Is this correct, or could a set of carefully guided measurements serve to eliminate the need for the replica to be left onsite?

Cheers!!
