I posted in the welcome wagon with my story as “GT40P stuck in da stable” you moved me to the 2nd gen. No one responded so I just started doing more resurch and posting here to get some action.

I ordered Sanderson shorties, FF3GTS I believe. I love the look but the driver side runs right into the Clutch cable that I just installed prior to headers. Please see pict.
Without being there I can't advise but maybe you can use a bracket to move the cable away from the header, the steering box is an obstacle and I don't know if you have any room by the block, 'block night's tells me no. Maybe a pic looking down
Sanderson was VERY nice to me!! Trying to accommodate between there massive orders etc. They are in San Fran and had a customers car in the bay with my set up. They installed same header as mine then bent a pipe trying to clear cable. It runs right against cable and right where the cable enters the ear of the bell housing so no play for the Cable to move and be mounted with bracket. I’ve already dealt with a short cable and header burn on cable stranding me so I went with the long cable. Like you, Sanderson was like were trying to help but without seeing it was hard to help. Long drive from San Diego to San Fran. Please see photos, I have many more!! I feel like we’re in the wrong thread? Drivers side header here.
Here is the pipe Sanderson so kindly bent/fabricated for me. My opinion along with it hitting and going to burn/melt the cable casing it has low flow caracteristics.
Here is a close up of the CLOSEness of the cable to the header.
I thought about bolting the header to a solid foundation, heating it up and bending the flange out. It would almost surely kink etc
It would almost seem to me that if I had a header the same as the passenger side that it would fit. Passenger side hits the block at the flange. I’m gonna need to bend it out a bit as it’s sure to expand and vibrate etc. Lol. Crazy I know. Never ends.
These are the shorties I tried fitting up.
