My buddy ran factory mustang shortys on his 302 b2 swap and they cleared everything no problem. steel plate, drilled holes in it and set them ontop the factory mounts.

The Fox body mustang headers normally hit everything in the ranger swap. Frame rail on passenger side and steering box on the drivers side. Unless you get the motor up really high they don't work. And if you get the engine that high lots of other stuff is not right.

you'll have to cut the front tube(drivers side) about 3 inches from the collector and cope the tube at the flange and kinda tweak it down a little to clear the power steering pump.weld it back up..........worked for me
