Yeah I called them and talked to the guy that did the build for the magazine. He said there was problems with fitment on the driver side. He also made a strong point that the mounts play a huge part in engine/frame space.

I ended up ordering some cheap Stainless F-body headers off ebay to try them out.

This is a quote from a PM I sent to Jomama over on LS1 Tech about his 79.
What stinks is I was impatient and had ordered those F-body headers just minutes before I got his response.
