    In the process of putting a 455 olds in a 31 chevy and we need blockhugger headers but can't find a vender for them . Any ideas where to look?
     
  2. Sanderson doesn't have them?

    If you're not running hood sides, the stock manifolds from like a '69 Toronado look more like headers and would probably be cheap. But they come straight out and dump pretty high up -

    check out the olds forums for vendors, I know they talk about headers over there.

    I think Dick millar racing is one place?

    anyway look at

    classic olds and
    real olds power


    but to be honest I think you will find you will have to make your own set. That or buy and modify a set.

    I have a 55 olds I'm putting a 455 into, been done a few times but no one makes header for the swap, so can't imagine you will find something off the shelf, but hey, you never know your luck!
