Help needed with side exhaust and passenger roll bar

[Ernie Orwig]

Guys, I have a MARK IV with a 427 High Port TFS head. Obviously the 351W headers won't work and I will be having the headers built. My question since the body can't be on the car, can someone be nice enough to give me a few measurements? I was needing from the main frame tube to the inside of the side pipe in 2 places along the large pipe of the side exhaust. Second, from the main frame tube to the end of the metal bracket that has the standoff. My thinking is that I get the side pipe level and in place and then build the header out to the side pipe socket. if you have a different way of doing it, I am all ears. (I am selling my coated headers and the side exhaust (bare metal).
if you have suggestions for a set of stainless side pipes, I would appreciate it. I hope that the new pipes will fit in the same location! :)

#2 where do I go to get my passenger side roll bar replaced. the hoop where the down leg attaches is off and I can't get the full tube to insert. The chrome is pitted as well.
Has anyone had any dealings with Factory 5 on warranty items?

BTW, I am running the Tremec TKX. Has anyone had any experience with installing one. the rear of my transmission is sitting off of the mounting plate. It looks like I will have to mount the transmission mounting bracket from the bottom or notch the plate.

Sorry for such a long note.

Call Georgie over at Gas-N for the headers. He built me a custom set for my 427w w/ “Z” heads that have the raised exhaust ports. He knows these cars and they fit perfectly and even have an adjustable ball flange to help get the side pipes dialed in. Not all side pipes are the same, so you will want to use, or tell Georgie, which ones you plan on using. Not sure on the other items.

I will do that!
