Pitman arm hitting shorty headers

I've been saying that for years, but everyone is stuck on the Hookers...I ran 88300 for years on my 74, with no issues, and I didn't have to beat anything with a hammer, to make them fit. Sometimes people can't see the easy solution, if it was in front of their face.
Same with the Thorley's..it's been proven that it can be done, but the same issue keeps coming back up..they didn't even phase the guy that did my exhaust, he just made the pipes to work.
