79 C-10 headers oval ports
 

I'm looking to find a set of headers to fit my 79 C10 2wd pickup, but the catch is. The heads have oval ports and angled plugs in them. I have searched and only come up with the 65868 headman headers, and I need a part time job to afford those babies. If anyone knows of any other headers that may work or a pair of those cheaper than $600.00 I would really like to know about them. :metal:

Just wondering if Dynomax or someone else made a set? If not i'm going to push the button and get the hedman race headers.

I take it you've called Summit, Jegs, etc? I guess I'm not much help. :lol:

Called summit and they had nothing else, it looks like I will have to break down and go with the hedmans which are great headers

Thank you for the reply to the post. I checked into them and it appears they have a set to fit. Thank you.

There is a Hooker Header out to cover this application now. It is the 2840HKR and will fit the angle plug heads.
Just a FYI for the community.

i just ran headers for straight plugs and dimpled the header tube to clear the 2 or 3 plugs i had to get to..worked like a champ

how bad is it to put square headers on oval ports?
