I run across an awesome deal on a set of headers for a 72 Nova.I did a search but nothing really came up ....gotta be somebody here has tried a set on a C10.If so could you post your results...thanks in advance

68-72 or 74 nova have the same sub frame as the 67-69 camaro i believe, so they should work.

Morning, Yes the subframes are interchangeable. I have a set of headers for the first gen Camaro (full length) and I looked at them & compared them to the set of headers I removed from my truck and the big difference seemed to be that the Camaro headers did not have as much distance (vertical) from the exhaust port flanges to the bottom primary pipes where they make the turn to the back, compared to the correct truck headers. Now I'm talking a set that came off my '77 I have no idea how far down the 67-72 needs to be. With all that said they might have fit... but they would of been very close to the floor board firewall area. You would really need to do a trial fit to make sure, or wait for a positive confirmation from someone else who has done it successfully.

God Bless, Terry

You are correct, here is my install with Camaro headers, which is the same part number as the Nova headers:http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=299659

I tried the correct ruck headers, but they hung down way to low, so I thought that I would give the Camaro headers a try and I am happy with the fit. It is really close to the frame on the passanger side and close to the lower control arm on the drivers side but it works and they don't hang down to the ground.
