Headers for 200 with A/C

[indyman13]

Anyone know if any of the headers linked to below will work with a factory A/C on a 73 Maverick? Numbers 2-6 will not be a problem, it's that number 1 cylinder and compressor clearance I'm worried about.

http://www.nostalgicairparts.com/ sells a mount that locates the compressor out of the way from the header. Maybe that will help...

I'm pretty sure that the first and second links are for the same header (Clifford 6 into 2). Unless you relocate the compressor lower, it will not work.
The 3rd link looks like Clifford's 6 into 1 header, which will have the same clearance problems. I'd recommend against buying this header; I have heard a lot of reports of it cracking where the gases meet before the outlet.
