Are you looking for "shorty style" headers? I tried the Chevelle shortys from Jegs and they didn't fit my 72 with BBC. I went to a long tube header from Hedman. They fit pretty good but are not exactly the tube size I wanted. I tried Hooker Super Comps first and there was no way they would fit. They hit the oilpan and the frame. Then I went to Hooker Comps after the Jegs guy said he knew for a fact they would fit. Nope. Here's a couple pics of the Headmans on my truck. The collectors are kinda low but my truck is pretty low compared to most.
