well i was just wonderin where is the best place to get a good deal on a set of headers and sidepipes for a 68 with a big block?? i would prefer painted over chrome as i will probably get them jet hot coated anyway!!
thanx for any info!!!

Take a look at Hooker ceramic coated headers.:) I've got them on my 72 and they are great. I got them from summitracing.com.

www.ecklers.com (http://www.ecklers.com) has some nice choices too. :)

Are you thinking on Hooker's nest-of-snakes style header/sidepipe combo?

acctually im lookin for the full length headers that connect to the sidepipes and the side pipes!! Not sure if thats the nest of snakes you were talkin about?I just missed a set on ebay that sold for 400!!!!
Thanx for the heads up though, I see summit has them ceramic coated 800 for the headers and 600 for pipes!! ouch

Here's what the nest-of-snakes look like: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Corvette-hooker-headers-sidepipes-Vette-big-block-68-69_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43978QQihZ007QQitemZ 170098095919QQrdZ1

BTW these are in bad shape.

HI Watwheel! Those photos look great, you got that part in better than new condition, well done PG

Thanks PG
I really had fun helping to put her together and pick out everything I wanted to try on her. Topped the headers off with a complete stainless steel exhaust system including mufflers. Just had the wheels aligned yesterday and she is ready for the spring/summer, if it ever gets here. Michigan weather is not cooperating this year. Teases us with 60 degree weather then jumps back to high 20"s with snow. Getting anxious to get her out after her complete restoration.

YES 73shark those are what i am lookin for!! i watched a set on ebay no rust or dents in Wisconsin went for 400 even!! I would have bid but was waiting for payment on an engine i sold and wanted to make sure i could pay!!! the guy paid me the day after auction ended,[:'(]Dang a day late and 400 bucks short!!
