I've used Hookers on numerous FE powered mustangs including a 67 GT500. I can't attest to the other makes since Hooker is all I've ever used but they do fit, it's sometimes a chore to get them lined up just before the engine settles into the mount location and getting to all the bolts can be tough but it's doable. I just installed a set in my 68 with a 427 tunnel port and these are hitting the shock towers on both sides. I haven't experienced this problem before but I think it's the exhaust port configuration on the tunnel port heads that's creating the problem. I'm hoping after I have it running they will kinda seat themselves so I don't have to take them back off and hammer-tweak them.
