I have a 1975 Valiant that I am putting a 440 with fenderwell headers, I want to drop the front a bit, with the 2" spindle, with stock tires and wheels will the drop interfere with the tires hitting the fenderwells ?
 
Pretty sure fenderwell headers have tire issues even at stock height. Used to be a rule of thumb that a 26" tire was max to even make it in your driveway with Hookers. Don't know if lowering the car is a good idea I would get diffent headers if your set on it.
 
yea you'll have some clearence issues I would'nt do it. you might be able to get away with adjusting your tortion bars but only slightly becouse it will through off you aligment. You can always go with another type of header like 72BBswinger sugested. shop around I think there is a two piece header that can be used but a mini starter will need to used. I cant remember who makes it though.
 
id be more worried about ripping the headers off on a bump in the road if you plan on lowering the car with drop spindles..
