i just got a stock 360 to go in my 74. all i have are the tiny 318 manifolds.
most new header companys build crap or are expensive.
so i am looking for some cheap old headers for my car. mine is a driver so i dont need any perfect new looking headers just usable and cheap ( i can paint lol )

Summit and Jegs have $99.00 headers...they are a copy of the Hooker header.

no thanks.
i dont know about the jegs brand headers, but the summit ones are bulit by flowtech, and they are junk, definately the worst header i have ever seen. we bought a set for my brother and not only did the bolt holes not line up, one of the tubes went straight across the spark plug hole (not close like its going to burn the wire, but across the hole so you couldnt even put a plug in at all)
thanks for the suggestion any way...
just my experience, if you plan on buying these i would not recommend it..

All the cheaper 1-5/8 headers are pretty much built the same so I wouldnt expect one brand to fit much better then the others.
If you want good fit, your going to pay for it. TTI or Dougs.

I got a set they look crumby, and have a crushed spot, but ill take 40 bucks plus what ever shipping is.......55-60 bucks should cover it.

I have a set off my 318 in my '74 cuda. I can send you pictures if you're interested. They will definitely need to be repainted, but there's no dents or dings in them. Where are you located?
