Headers 4 a 75 Cordoba 360 - 01/18/19 03:53 AM

I have this Doba I would like to use for a daily driver this comming summer.
Looking at Accurate exhaust advertising here.
They have a complete system for duals at over $800oo.
They also say they are in limited supply.
I was wondering if there might be a header for this thing.
I can get the rest done at the local shop.
Don't wanna throw a grand at this thing for exhaust.
Thanx in advance folks.

I looked on Summit's website and it looks like your header choice is very limited. Hooker 5115hkr is what fits. At $500 they are a little spendy in my book. Amazingly enough, if you had a big block, your header choice would be better.

Thanks for the response.

That is a little spendy for this toy.

I just went to Jeg's website and had better luck. Looks like they have headers to fit your Cordoba starting at $250. In my way of thinking that's more like it.

It's basically a B-body isn't it?

I agree..250 range for a good set of hedmans or hooker for a little more maybe.

I had a 76 Daytona Charger SE 360 auto with a nice set of hookers.

first set of pipes were 2.5" straight pipe with 2 turbo muffs and 2' of tail pipe bent in a 90* dumping in front of the N50s.

one night about mid night at 110 mph a cat ran across the road, went under the front bumper and the CAT-muff-2' tail pipe all got sucked under the N50 at speed with a big bump & bang then 1 open header on the slow down. went back for my muff trash and it had cut the cat clean in two.

then with no cash outlay I had 2 thrush tin can mufflers welded to the bolt on collector and 2 small 45* x 8" long turn downs.

then it had the sound of power thrush tin cans were famous for.

IIRC trans R&R sucked with headers but well worth it.

looked at JEGS, could find no such header.
Might you have a link?
Same at Summit.

Yes, a b-body, but unlike the older ones, due to front sub frame I would guess.



I was thinking of exiting in front of rear wheels.
Not looking to kill any kritters, but I appreciate the responses and the short story. I will have the pipes come out under the rear bumper.

Guess I'll see what Fran wants in town.
thing is I wasn't really looking for headers.
Couldn't find the head pipes anywhere.

Thanx guys.

Install a pair of exhaust manifolds from a mid-90's Ram or Dakota with a 318 or 360. They are a great design & should fit. I installed a pair of these on my 73 Charger 340 when I had it & they fit better than the original manifolds! Only thing I had to do was have a new trans dipstick assembly made as the RH side manifold interfered with the OE dipstick.

$250 for a set of uncoated headers, that will be rusty in less than a year, doesn’t sound so good to me, especially if it’s a daily driver.

The front sub frame change was 73. Most header application pages wont include 75/up because of emissions and generally omit Dobas because not considered a performance vehicle. Just about anything spec'd for small block B-body will fit. A couple tubes on drivers side go under the tie rod, passenger side is a bit snug, some install instructions say floor shift only but there's usually room to get around column shift.

If you're going headers only because you can't find an off the shelf head pipe, find a exhaust shop with skill. Custom bent duals from manifolds to bumper can be had for $500ish plus mufflers. Been a few years since I had any bent, your prices may be subject to inflation. I always supply my own mufflers to get what I want and skip the shop mark up. Getting past the gas tank on the drivers side is tight, but again an exhaust shop with skill can do it.

FWIW: best money to spend on waking up this pile of steel is swapping the rear gear. Probably 90% of them shipped with a 2.45 that will give long legs and decent mpg on the highway but won't get out of it's own way. Ya won't need more than a 3.21 to have a completely new car. Add a swap meet cast iron 340 intake, a TQ and maybe a purple shaft (if they still make them) and it's bucks down, fun up.

He asked about headers that fit. He didn't specify painted or coated. I don't see where you did any research to try and help the OP, just snide and negative remarks.

Thanx elmor353 up

I also mentioned the local shop would be my next best option.
The car does Ok for get up and go, considering it's weight.
I have a 4 bbl and plan on an RV cam for some grunt.

I agree.

Also, headers are one of those things that you get what you pay for. I'd spend more now and avoid the headaches later. I get not wanting to dump a bunch of money into this car, but I LOVE YOUR DOBA! I think you should call TTI and see if they have something. I bet they do, and they'll seal up so nicely, and be trouble free for years and fit very well. twocents

find some that don't go under the steering arm. those are a pain. tti makes a set, yes they are expensive but you will crush the tube that goes under the arm, ask how I know. I think dougs also makes a set, check out ebay. search for headers that fit a 73+charger or road runner. same basic front suspension

Saw those. The Q&A under the listing on summitt says the steering link goes through the header pipes like most of the rest.I was hoping there was something new out there.
