I have read where 98-02 F Body headers fit well. I'm waiting to see how the new TSP 1 7/8" Stainless Headers fit up in the F bodies and if in fact they will fit in the 68-72 A Bodies as well.

I used Dougs headers and adapter plates. Fit is very good, quality is fantastic. Best ground clearance out there. They are available coated or raw.

got the doug's headers. they fit great. and there is definately alot of ground clearance. so much that the oem trans crossmember will have to be replaced. we will put a g-force on it and should clear fine. thanks.
