Would headers from a 67 Belvedere fit a 66?

yes, same animal. Check Summit and see what they have. TTi's are VERY expensive.

Yes, and your gonna find that if you look at the Hedman listings they'll show 'em for a 67 but not a 66. Ignore that, they will fit as my 66 has had set on it for 20+ years! If Hedman makes headers in the Elite series they are a nice header for the money.

I like the Doug's #D452 headers less expensive and better looking than TTI.

buy a set of cheap headers and have them coated by someone else. I bought a set of coated hookers and they started rusting before I put them on the car. I brought them to a shop by minneapolis and they stripped and re-coated them and they still look the same.(6 years) I will never buy factory coated headers again

My car is a 67 with a lowdeck (452"). Im running Hooker Comps. They work well, but did have a few issues. I had to go to a solid Driver side mount because when the moter rocked, they hit the power steering pump. You'll need to run your suspension pretty tall, as the hit the control arm if your lower than stock. And I had to slightly bend the tranny dipstick tube. For the money, however, they are well built headers that will last, and offer 1-7/8" tubes. I'd buy em again.

Note: if working with Power Steering, Do NOT go with the summit brand, which are actually Flowtech's.

I hear good things about headman elite's as well. While they better be good, I'm not going to be the guy to suggest you spend $750 on a set of headers.

These are 1-3/4 Hedman Elite headers on my 63. Its a nice header and not to pricey. Ron
