Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window

Thanks for stoppin by McB! I appreciate the compliments! I'm postin progress today so come back and take a look. Thanks Heath, I got another job today for a drawing of a 67 Chevelle but it is stock. Might make a little project money!! My mad skills with the pinstriping brush have been limited to stuff layin around the shop, but I'll get better.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Alrighty then, on to the progress pics. I ordered some Hedman Hedders part #68608, they are the mid-length 1967 Camaro/Chevelle headers. Summit had them for the least coin. $333 shipped.
I test fitted the passenger side first and they fit perfect and luckily the trans lines that I bent a few months ago turned out to be perfect also, guess I got lucky again. I didn't get so lucky on the driver side. There is a post that is floating around out there that says these fit perfect on both sides with no mods, that is not really true. You can see the header is high toward the back of the block because it is hitting the motor mount bracket. Pay no attention to the dust and bondo sanding mess that is everywhere, we are still sanding the 39.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Aggravated, I pulled out the trusty grinder and started throwin sparks. I know it looks like messy grinding.....because it was! I had to cover everything in cardboard which made it difficult to get to.
After taking out about half an inch or so, the header dropped into posistion leaving about 1/16th of an inch clearance......good enough for government work!! Promise the next pics will be of a cleaner engine bay!!!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
the Headers look great, sorry to hear about the fitting problems.
I was planning on getting this same set of headers. I wonder if it would be smart for me to mod my mount tower and flush it out on the top rather then have that hump sitting out there that much where you had to grind
