I have the same block as you and will be dropping mine into a 1967 camaro. The headder look awesome I wanted to make my own also how much money do you have tied up into them and where did you get your flanges and tube from? Any help would be awesome thanks.

The flanges a friend of mine water jetted out, and the tubing all came from speedway motors. I have about 450 in them including ceramic coating.
