    Hi guys,

    Working with an engine customer, and his research leads him to believe that the 2012's won't work in that chassis. 68 Wildcat coupe.

    I have no experience with that combo.. but I am sure some of you do..

    Will those headers work with "adjustments" to a tube or two

    If no .. Shorty headers.... the only option?

    Thanks

    Does the 68 Cat have a box frame or the x like a Riviera? If its the like Riv frame long tubes will not work

    No, not the Riv Frame, Internet pictures look like it has the extra cross braces in front of the K member, but nothing behind it, and it is a full perimeter frame design..

    Biggest difference is that it is rear steer.. Steering box is behind the K member (engine crosssmember).

    I could see issues there...
