Hi guys, after being an observer on this site I finally decided to jion in and see if somebody might have a few ideas or past experience that might help me. I'm building a 1967 Nova for my 15 year old son, I installed a TCI rear 4 link kit as well as the TCI front clip with the rack and pinion, disc brakes and such. My biggest question on this set up is my options for headers . Do I need to use the TCI full tube headers or can I use any mfgr. of headers with the application for a '67 Nova?? I know the front frame is narrower than stock so not sure if there will be clearance issues or anything like that, the car will be getting a 327 small block in it if that makes a difference. Thanks for your knowledge and help!!!!

Lucky son! I have a TCI clip but have an LS1 and headers are nearly impossible to get to fit. Lots of other here have TCI clips and small blocks so they can chime in.

I will post the part number for the headers that came with the TCI clip we bought new/used on this site.

The headers are from a company in TX and they are not sold as nova headers but they fit right in.

I am using the headman 68168 with my TCI clip...they fit great.

You can also use any street rod type block hugger header. They are not the best for performance but they also don't cost much.

Thanks to all , 383Nova if you can check on the headers you got with your clip that would be a big help. Novafan63 thanks about the Headman headers, I had done a search prior to posting this and did come across somebody who said they were using the Elites #68168. I just wanted to make sure before ordering the pipes, I hate ordering and then having to send them back due to fitment issues. Thanks again to all!!!!!!!!!

I have a set of S&S's on mine:

When I talked to them, they said they made them for TCI fronts. They fit my Heidt's front clip real nice and I like the way they look.
