Default 572 Corvette

I have put a GM 572 Crate engine in my 66 corvette convertible but having problems locating headers. can any direct me in the right direction
66 corvette convertible
4 speed
No AC
NO power steering
Presently NO exhaust at all
I saw a car in one of the other internet sites (King Ray)
had done the the same anyone have any contact with him ??

I think I have found some headers for a company called Lemons but there is a problem they tell me the last pipe on the driver side goes right through where the clutch pedal linkage goes between frame and engine block??? has anyone ever converted to a hydraulic clutch system from mechanical on a 65

That is going to be a tough one, because the 572 GM Crate engine is built on a tall deck foundation. You may want to check with Dougs Headers, or Stahl Headers, both of these guys are old time header builders and they may have something for you. If you were here in Portland Oregon area, I know someone here that can build you a set of headers.
