header fitment question

[slimbo]

getting new headers this winter and i really like the dynatechs but they dont make them for our application. they do make them for for 70-81 camamro and 68-72 chevelle with sbc. i thought i read somehwere that one of those apps will fit our cars as well. anybody tried it? they are about 300 less than the hedmans i was lookig at so i was wondeing if they are gonna fit.

I put 1 7/8 Schoenfelds on my car, just got everything bolted in yesterday. They fit great. Let me know if you want pics or you'll probably see it in person sometime.

are the 1 7/8 scho's a standard bolt pattern? they clear the lower arm mounts? you running angle plugs? the cost is a big factor for the scho's they are like 500 cheaper the the huslers.

Yes standard pattern. Yes angle plugs. Really close to the pass side lower mount, I can probably slide a pice of paper in between. Can fix with a BFH, but too late now.

The paint rubs off when you touch them, so either repaint with something good or get them coated, which I did.

I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

Dyna tech makes them. I have there 1-5/8 to 1-3/4 stepped header on my car. The fit is very good. I also have a set 1-3/4 to 1-7/8 stepped Schoenfelds that i had in the car befor. The fit is ok. Dynatech only makes up to 1-3/4 primary tube size.
