Re: Hooker 68-72 big block Chevelle headers fit my 69 C10
Being narrower and higher, they tucked up right underneath the horizontal pin/shaft that bolts to the frame. That shaft is what holds the part that connects the arm from the column to the part that bolts to the transmission shifter shaft. It wouldn't let the shifter rotate through the gear pattern. This may or may not be a problem with the floor shifter used in Chevelles and Caminos...? I was in a hurry to make a local car show and needed headers fast so I opted for a set of Hedman 69110's...They're long tube and hang down, but not as far as the Hookers and the Hedmans line right up with the openings in the cross member. If you have Amazon "Prime" then you can have them on your door step in 48 hours..."Win,win!" Amazon.com: Hedman 69110 Chevy Pu 2 & 4Wd Big...
