Getting ready to start work on my 69 Camaro this winter that I've been accumulating parts for over the last couple of years. I previously picked up a set of Doug's Headers before the Holley/Hooker LS swap system came out. Seeing how well that system works has got me thinking that it is the way to go but am wondering if I could use the Doug's headers I already have to save a few bucks? Has anyone tried that parts combo? Rest of the front is stock subframe with full Ridetech/Tru-Turn and a DSE steering box. Engine/trans is LS6 and T56. Thanks!

I doubt they will fit, and if they do, will probably hang down too low. I'm running Doug's on a friend's build(not with the new holley mounts), and they are interfering with the upper control arm on the pass side. I'm very limited how much camber I can run due to the interference. I will either have to dimple them or change them.

Thanks for the reply - I've seen a few people have the Doug's fit well but the Holley system works so well together I'll just go with that. The Doug's headers will be in the parts forum soon.
