Welcome to the Darkside and to the forum. Our host, Performance Years and Ames are the two leading souces I've used for Big Car parts. I believe Year One also has some stuff. Would suggest that you consider joining the Pontiac-Oakland Club International [you can find them on the web]. Dues are only $25 per year and they put out an excellent club magazine [monthly] that is worth the dues alone. About half of the magazine is devoted to classifieds selling parts and cars. It is also an excellent source for vendors. Aftermarket parts for Big Car Pontiacs are not as commonly available as for Chevies but they are out there if you know where to look. You mention headers specifically, Doug's Headers now make tube headers for the 65/66 big cars. I just put a set on my 65 Catalina 2 door sedan [455 motor] and am very pleased with the fit, finish and ease of installation. Have fun, Jim
