No hassle headers for 66 dart w/360?

If everything fits together on your car with Doug's D-450, then the coating is very nice. No two of these cars is the same for a variety of reasons. Some users have reported popping them in with no trouble. Others like me had a horrible time. If you think you might have to weld them like I did, then I would buy the raw, uncoated headers. Then do whichever modifications you need, and then have them coated. I ship mine to an outfit that does Jet-Hot coating and that coating has always worked great. Of course it requires a bunch of bumbling getting them sorted out and shipped. Just a thought.

R3dplanet and Novacuda have both said in this thread that they have Doug's D-450 headers and had to make modifications to make them fit. R3dplanet's changes mainly seem to apply to a manual transmission car. I want to add headers to my '65 Barracuda Formula S with the stock 273 and automatic. I will also be adding Kelsey Hayes discs with a power brake booster (exact type to be determined), and power steering (probably a Federal pump and Firm Feel box).

What modifications will I have to make to make these headers fit with the power steering an brakes I mentioned?
Should I get the unfinished headers and then have them finished after they've been test fit? I would hate to have to damage the finish on the ceramic coated ones if I have to modify the headers themselves.
