I got some on my 69 c-10 after I dropped it. They are ceramic coated Sandersons that I got from ECE and they are nice. I don't have a camera, but there is a picture of them (not installed) on ECE's website.

Hey Ante_up...I too purchased the same ones, I am nearing the end of my resto...but I have a question for you: Does the drivers side of your header tilt inward towards the transmission more so than the passenger side? I have trial fitted mine and drivers side seems excessively close (almost too close) I am running a 700R4 and had to grind off remains of a cast in bracket on the trans....Will post some picts later

Yeah...I just took a look at mine and that the exact setup I have basically. I put a 700R4 in last summer and the headers in December. I didn't do the install and was surprised when I just took a look at them, how close they are to the tranny.
Looks like a sweet project you have there. I want to eventually tear mine down to the frame and rebuild from there(more like dreaming of). Hope that helped somehow. |

ECE/Sandersons are 1 1/2" to 2 1/2".
I wanted shortys that were 1 5/8" to 3" min. Headmans makes a set for a chevelle that will fit with the use of a aftermarket motor mount by Northwest Auto Fab. Check out the post more info there. " Pics of Project 67 )

You can also pick up a set of 3/4 length Chevelle headers. I went from Full length truck headers to the chevelle headers after I dropped my truck 4/6.
They look similar to those sanderson headers. I paid about $125 or so for a painted set of dynomax's.

Some of the chevelle headers will hit the stock motor mounts. The dynomax are supposto clear. Dont hold me to it though.

With the dynomax headers I have, motor in the v8 position.... everything cleared
They went in smooth. So far I haven't had a single problem with them. I picked them up from Summit Racing- I don't have a part number right now. I'll have to get it for you after work.

What headers will fit a v 8 in the I-6 position?
My truck has 2.5 drop spindles in the front with stock length springs. Probably going with a 700r4 trans or the original 3 speed.
