If anyone has or can take pictures of their dynatech headers on ls1 in a 87-93 foxbody can you please post them in this thread. I did a lot of searching and found the thread where they found out they were different from 94-04 ones.

Preferably looking for driver side close ups and steering shaft clearances. I know a lot of people run the flaming river shafts. Is this necessary?

I removed my shaft today and the pass side slid right on, but the driver side was being a pita. There is just a mock up motor in the car and was checking for clearances now. I had the motor lifted up but when trying to put back down the steering column was in the way. Do I have to push the column in some. I read too that it moves from left to right? Is the steering shaft supposed to go inside between the header and block? Help please!

No one has pictures?! Or any tips? Part number I got was 715-91410 which is supposed to be for 79-93 foxes.

Ok so I pushed the steering column back in towards the firewall and I got the shaft to slide on and it clears the back primary. Is this how most people with the dynatechs run them? Because the shaft is about 2 inches short now. So what do I do now? I know I have to get another shaft because of the big *** rag joint anyways, but wont it still be too short?

I do not believe the column will clear if I pull it out from the firewall as far as possible? But I have not tried. How do you guys run them?

Check out maximummotorsports.com. They have a nice collapsing solid steering shaft for manual or power racks. Nice clearance and much better feel over the rag-joint junk.

Yes I was just looking at that one from mm last night. I just hope its long enough where I have the column pushed back to in the firewall. Although if the ujoint by the column is not as big I guess I would pull it back out some.
Thanks for the input.

Did you ever manage to figure out a solution to this clearance issue? I have a set of dynatech 1 7/8 long tubes and a team z k member. The picture you posted is literally the same problem I am having too. I have a flaming river manual rack and low-profile shaft, but that still hasn't fixed the problem. I have yet to play around with adjusting the steering column and I believe there is just barely some play in my motor mounts to bring the engine forward. I'll post an update tomorrow and pics if i can manage to figure it out. Any help is appreciated! Thanks! -Taylor

what most people do not realize not only side to side on the steering column but you can run spacers on it. The 2 bolts close to the firewall (under the dash) I have about 3/4 spacer and then the closet to me I think I have about 1/2" washers. I use 1 7/8th Kooks on mine. Few guys have done it this way when I told them it does work.

your using the spacers to drop the column down
