Question What headers for a 67 Lemans with Edelbrocks??

What headers will fit a 67 Lemans convertible with a 4 speed and Edelbrock heads?
Both Hedman and Doug Thorley said they don't have anything.

I have Doug's headers on mine....NOT Doug Thorley....Doug's .. Same guy, different company...(I believe a court decision allowed this to happen) Most headers you find for Pontiacs will need some sort of tweaking to get them to fit perfectly, especially if you're using E-Heads like you and I. The only issues I had were the rag joint bolt was hitting the #1 cylinder tube. I believe I had a replacement rag joint in there which was replaced with the one with long bolts. Cutting those bolts down a bit cured the problem.. Also, I don't know if you have a 4 speed or not but the installation guide says the 1965 Z-bar MUST be used in place of the 67' due to the grease fitting location. I used my own Z-bar and relocated the grease fitting. I also had to move the Zbar up a little bit in its mount for clearance... Here's some pics of the issues before I cured them..

Thanks for the pics and info. I do have a 4 speed. I am using a super t-10 out of a later TA. Would you happen to have the part number for the Doug's headers?
Thanks for all the help

Jason
