Hi Larry, thanks for the e-mail. We can make any of these combinations. I would have a few more questions, like is this a nitrous motor, 10 1/2" tire, weight of the car, stall setting, trans brake, etc. If so then the 2 3/8" x 4 1/2" collector should be perfect. If its normally aspirated then the 2 1/4" x 2 3/8" step would be better.
2 3/8" x 2 1/2" would probably be too large. The Dart 360 heads are raised .300, also is this a tall deck block. As far as location of the motor, if you want to take a measurement on the passenger side from the back of the head to the stock fire wall, I'll try to get that measurement on a correct car to check it. Thanks again, Dan Lemons.
