Hey guys . Looking for help here from guys that done or know the setup of a Volvo 160 steering box on the shoebox. I have installed the box now I'm stuck with Which headers I can use. I heard block hugger I think there no room for it. Please if any one done this and can help. I had the 90's camaro stock headers and it clear the stock steering box. I leave some pics of my setup thanks. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I believe ram horn manifolds as they dump straight down between cross member and steering box. The exhaust pipe is tight however it has been done before. Some block huggers, Sanderson and Patriot, also supposedly fit. There are tight fit and conventional block hugger styles. Also think about your starter access with pipes on. I ***ume you've already finished swapping the oil pan and finished the steering upgrade?
I only hear about those shorty headers but never seen pics already installed. I just worry that if I buy them they wont work. The box is right on the middle on the headers. Yea. Everything is swap to fit the ford . I drove it around the block but steering was not great . That's why I went to the Volvo swap. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
jamco has proper shorty headers that will clear the gear box http://jamcosuspension.com/products/sfID1/73/sfID2/39/sfID3/12/productID/2398 http://jamcosuspension.com/products/sfID1/73/sfID2/39/sfID3/12/productID/2397 Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app[/QUOTE]
