'61 Chevy Bubbletop-LS3-What headers? Just wondering what headers folks have been using on a 1961 Chevy Bubbletop with LS engine.
I'm using S&P headers on my '56, and like them. But they definitely are more expensive than others. I do want the heat coating. Of course, I'll need O2 bungs for oxygen sensors.
Interested in what options folks have used.

I'll be giving them some serious thought. I missed it at first, thought they didn't have O2 bungs, but I see they do.

Theres a set of stainless shorty headers on ebay- new- with collectors and o2 bungs welded in for $249. Basically what im using but i need to get my own collectors. These are universal LS swap headers as advertised.

Well...interesting. I called BRP and was going to order theirs. But the stipulate they can't guarantee a fit if not using their motor mounts, "...especially on that car."
Regarding the eBay headers, I'm wanting some that are Chromex coated, and polished. Those aren't. That of course will be a reason for higher expense.
Still evaluating...
