The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The HiPo Shop Headers for 61 V8

What headers will work on a 61 with 350 & 350 trans

I still have the torsion bar front end

Hookers usually work.

On steet corners.

You sure cant go by any brand.I have used some blockhuggers,or S10 conversion headers,when space was limited.On other applications you have all kinds of room.My advice Check an see how much room you have,then go to a good speed shop and find something that will fit.If you are looking for performance the full lenght headers with collectors are ideal.On my 55 I had steering clearnce problems so I had to go with the blockhuggers,but on my 72 I have the full lenght headers,and performancewise there is a lot of difference.Oh yeah,get a good set of coated ones,leave the El Cheapos on the shelf.

THE OLD RAMS HORN CAST IRON ONES FROM CHEV WORK EXCELENT FOR A LOTS LESS BUCKS, MIGHT NOT LOOK AS HOT BUT WERE VERY EFFICENT

My preference is Hedman Hedders 69260 ( web page ), but as several folks pointed out, Hookers work street corners and just about any headers made for that application will do just fine, including rams' horns.
P/N 69260 for your application
I've used Dynomak, Hooker, Edelbrock, "no-name" and Hedman. I've never had a bad experience with Hedman.

No, I don't work for them. Hey...I don't even work...I'm retired. How bout dat? It feels good to be able to say that, since I've been fighting for disability retirement for 15 months and I'm sposta start gettin an income at the end of November...finally!

find your self a set of the big truck or corvet Ram horns (2 1/2) thay flow pretty good for cast iron manifolds
