headers for a 330

[Guest]

Does anybody make headers for my '65 Cutlass with a 330? I haven't been able to find any. They got em for a 400 in a '65, and for a 330 in a '66. Will the '66 ones fit? And if so, why didn't they list the 330/'65 combo?

Since all 65-later Olds heads have the same exhaust flange bolt pattern, and a 330 is a couple inches narrower than a 400, and 330 and 400 both used Jetaway automatics in 1965, I'll stick my neck out and say the ones for a 1965 400 will fit. Headers are almost always a tweak job though. You may have to massage them some to get a good fit.

I've always heard the 64-67 frames are the same but I can't verify it with my parts books as the frame listings start in 1966.

I've got some old car magazines and in a couple from 1969 there is an ad for Hooker headers that states their smallblock headers fit from 64 up to 69 Cutlass cars....I think their number was #3102....There may be a problem though if your car has column shift as the linkage may hit.

Thanks a lot. I'll get hold of Hooker and see what they say.

Are you looking for long tube or shortie headers? You may want to try Hedman Hedders. They just came out with a shortie that may work. Their number is 562-921-0404.
