1964 small block headers

I have the same setup. 1964 Galaxie 500 XL with a 347 Stroker Motor. What headers will fit? I bought a set of the Hi-Po Mustang 289 Exhaust Manifolds, they foul on the drivers side.
I then purchased a set of the Patroit headers, and they too will not fit without some modification, which will ruin the ceramic coating.
Any suggestions are more that welcomed.

I bought the patiot clipsters for a 65 mustang which are shortys,1 5/8 prim. with 3" collectors. The pass. side shoots straight out the back and is real close to the body mount but it will work. I'm running 3" exhaust,I bought a 3" mandrel bent u-bed from jegs and cut and welded it to clear the mount.The drivers side comes out different and there is plenty of room for a 3" pipe.They come in bare metal or ceramic,the ceramics are 279.00 if i remember right.

I would love to see a picture of the passenger side to see how you designed your exhaust to clear the body mount, if you don't mind.
Do you remember the part number for the 3" u-bed mandrel. This might be a viable solution for me also.
It seem to me the slightest torque of the engine would cause the exhaust/headers to hit the body mount.
Do you have an e-mail address where I could contact you outside this site.
I have a pic or two I would like to send you also of my engine bay.
Thanks,
