Default WTB Bill Thomas L-88 headers

I know I am probably asking for the impossible, but here goes...............

Does anyone have a set or know where I can get a set of those very unique headers that were used on the 67 and 68 L-88 Sunray DX cars? They were originally made by Bill Thomas in California. I think he sold them to Chevy for their "covert" competition programs. These are the headers that have the "flat" looking collector that dumps into the 4 inch side exhaust.

Here's a link to what they look like................................

Thanks,

Can anyone provide a better pic of the flat collector area and where it transitions from the individual header tubes?

Thanks,
Rex

I am also looking for an image of the Bill Thomas header collector for the 427. If anyone has one, I would really appreciate seeing it.

Thanks!

Hi Rex,
Have you thought of Kevin Mackay at Corvette Repairs in Valley Stream, N.Y.?
He sure seems to be able to come up with old race car parts.

Alan
