Need info on which headers fit the best with power steering on a 68 coupe with a mild 289? My exhaust is ready for long tubes, but if they are in anyway a real PITA, i will get shorties for sure.
Which headers for my 68 with PS?

I put Hedman headers on my '68. They fit and clear everything very well, but I did put the drop bracket on the frame where the power steering cyl. mounts. Pretty much no matter what brand of headers you use, you'll need the drop bracket. In my research, Hookers and Hedmans fit the best. Also, I welded the bracket for extra strength.

FPA Fit great, no drop bracket and they are up tight by the frame.
Just prepair to reach deep into the wallet.

All I see on their site are applications for engine and head swaps, nothing for stock iron heads.

Or did you mean these?
Isn't it great when vendors that sell products for hundreds of dollars don't even update their own website?

Looks like you're gong with shorty's
I've got the step headers. I did my exhaust with a stock 289 as prep for the stroker. I was suprised at the SOTP increase of power. I went from stock manifolds with flowmasters and dumps to long tubes, turbos and tailpipes. I picked up power acroos the board. I thought I would loose a little down low, but was surprised.
