Someone has brought up it is tough to work on when the engines are that tight, who makes an affordable header for SBC that fits on 30-1/2" (31") centers, that will still make hp? I am thinking of the Gils, Stainless Marine, Eddie marine cast type headers, whose would fit?

The Magnum my father owned was on 32" centers and we had BBC. Affordable headers (less than $3,000+ each) were non-existent. CMI's did not fit, bought two sets and returned them.
