Hooker Super Comp fits my Z bar.
I have a little hammer work on one tube to clear my steering shaft but shouldn't have that problem w/ stock steering column.

Shock tower created no issue , of course if necessary i can cut a slot and weld half a pipe section to create a dimple .

They say 4 spd fit , but looking at #6 tube looks a little low and close to z bar , hate to order ceramic and have to hammer it half closed . I have a T5 but it needs rebuilt gears are thin .

No but very tight on #5. Go into it eyes wide open. I don't know if any off-the-shelf header is going to fit w/o some modification, somewhere.
If I need another set, I'm going to try and find a shop to do it. That or another set of Hookers and mod my steering linkage, if possible.

I'm running Unisteer power R&P conversation, using stock control arms & spindles.
The price on it has skyrocketed in the last few months as well. Looking forward to your progress.
