72 BBC Nova Headers

krugracing12 · 09-09-2011, 04:28 PM

Does some one make a bolt in header for a BBC gen-4 with Dart 320 heads and stock frame rails? I have the 2 piece Hooker race header and both tubes hit. I am using a front plate and can adjust height and set back but it is not even close. Hookers tech line line offered no assistance other than custom made.
Thanks
Bill

I can tell you first hand not too get Heddman. I've been fighting with a set for my 72 Nova for a long time. Not even close to fitting and the spark plug access is horrible. Had to make special sockets for the plugs. In the places where they hit I had to cut them out and weld pieces in. I worked on them for hours very fustrating.

Should have got a set of Lemons. Good Luck
