I am looking to purchase a set of headers to put on my 347 stroker that will be going in my '65 coupe. The car is a manual transmission using a Tremec TKO and Quicktime bellhousing.

From my research on here, it seems that Stans and Dougs Tri-Y headers come highly recommended. I have also seen Thermal Tech Coatings Tri-Y headers mentioned a time or two on here. Can anyone comment on the quality and fit of the Thermal Tech headers?

I have a set of coated Patriot tri-y's on my fastback and they fit like a glove (if my motor were a hand) and still look like new 4 years after I put them on. Just a little FYI...

Hi Chris,

Are you looking for torque building headers or high RPM? Two different animals, don't you know.

I tried to put Clippsters on my 65 and they wouldn't fit. hit the shock towers. Ended up using the Heddman Elite shorties
