Needless to say I'm not a happy sw customer.

Well, on the other token...I've got a factory 69 Camaro steering box, an LS-1, and ATS motor mounts for my car. I ordered the SW headers made for an original frame/steering box, and while there's not much clearance, they definetly fit. I've had them on the car for over 3 years, great quality!!!
...you can see here, the primary for cyl #1 is probably less than 1/2" from one of the corner bolts on the steering box, and cyl #3 runs slightly better clearance, probably between 1/2 and 1". It fits, but you probably need some sort of heat shield between the lines and the headers - my PS pump whines badly when the car gets hot, and I'm sure that's why...
I will add, I removed my Z-bar when I swapped to a T56, so clearance with that part is not an issue for me.
