vette tax




Vette bodies/header fitment and clearance are definitely very different from those specs on an f-body... get the ones for the car

Yes, F-body headers. I put 68 Camaro headers on the 94LT1 that was in my old 68 Camaro. They fit perfectly. Obviously there was no AIR in the 68 so that wasn't an issue.
