I put a cleveland into a 68. used the small block 289 motormounts and a set of headers from a company called tubular automotive, I dont know if they are still around but they are nice headers ,very thick flange. I have 4-v heads and they are 1 7/8 tubes plugs are okay to get to but not fast. how fast are you wanting to go?

Tubular automotive is still around and make the highest quality V-8 Mustang headers available in a box as far as I am concerned.
Unfortunatly, they are very difficult to deal with.

I have a set of Tubular Automotive 351C headers on my '69 coupe. The fit was only so so around the Z-bar with horrible ground clearence.
I plan on modifying them or getting another set of headers. The quality of the welds etc ... appears to be good however.
