You do not have to run a single spring any more. They opened the spring rule up.

Not sure what you mean about the headers. If your headers are 33-34" long, with a 16" long collector, that's about what I was suggesting, length wise. A merge collector will fit where a plain collector will.
HEE HEE !!... I could use a pushrod that has the bottom 3 inches 7/16" in diameter, but I'd have to put the pushords in place, then install the heads over them ! !
My pushrods ARE those ridiculous, almost solid wall things.

No more "stock spring arrangement" ?
HHMMM. they really are loosening those rules, aren't they ?

The header tubes can finally merge together, under the frame, at about a 30 degree angle back from straight out the sides, approximately 12" from the outside of the car.
A merge collector piece such as this one that I just used on headers that I built for a customer car.... would actually exit out from under the front fender, extending about 6" outside the car !
Can't be done.
