    I have a 67 lark woith a 350/350 and i just got a set of used headers from a buddy. I just spent the weekend tring to put them in and they hit the frame. Does anyone else out there got this problem? They came out of a 69 and all was good. Or do I need to buy someone elses special headers to fit this body? I would like to use them because they were free.(helped pull the motor and drop in a 455) Any info on this would be great
    Thanks Doug

    What frame brackets did you use and where did you mount them to get the 350 in the '67?

    if they dont work.....

    I dont know much about your year of car, however, if you decide not to use them, I may be interested in purchasing them fom you for my 71 Skylark. Just let me know, after you have exhausted your efforts.

    Thanks,

    I heard 67's are like the worst year to put any kind of headers in. Its gonna require much modification /denting (or worse) of the headers to fit. Even worse w/ 455's

    I think most headers were designed to fit the 70-72 cars.

    Your best bet may be to sell those headers to someone else and then use that money + some extra towards a set from TA (I hear TA's headers fit better than the other brands, they may have a set for 67's (although 67's never had 350's)

    Good luck

    Check your transmission lines cause those are a pain and get in the way.
