I've been wondering the same thing. Some guys on here have said they've had luck with hookers.

The headers from Early Classic are Sandersons.

Has anyone used the stainless headers on ebay yet? I was thinking of trying a set.

Re: Headers that fit???

The Hedmann headers for a 67 Camaro work well. I just had to "shave" the driver side motor mount down just a little. Didn't have to go all the way through the metal.

Re: Headers that fit???

I have Headman Hedders full tubes in my truck. I had to make one small dent to clear the passenger side framerail.

Those "Camaro" headers look like regular shorty's...
