    72 skylark, 455. Headers, unknown manufacturer. Dropping lower passenger control arm to change spring and the area with arrow hits header tube. Just curious if anyone else had this issue or if I should be looking for a bent frame or? Thanks.

    My Hooker Super Comps hit in the same spot. Gotta love headers.

    With my stage2, 2 inch headers I notched the control arm, In that spot with a 2 inch hole saw. I can send a picture if you would like when I get it up on the lift

    Thanks for the replies. I just don’t remember that’s as an issue before but memory isn’t my strong point anymore! Thanks again.
