1968 427 Headers
Hi All,
I have a 427 68 Vette and I am looking for a set of what has been called "Black Jack" headers for my car. I believe that Balck Jack was subsequently sold to Cyclone headers. These are large diameter headers and they have a square flange that bolts to a collector. If anyone has a set to sell please contact me. Or if you know of anyone you may want to sell a set. Beyond that, can anyone recommend a good set of air flowing headers for this car? This is a 435 horse car.
Thank you.

Not sure why you want to restrict yourself to the "Black Jack" brand but I'm using a set of Hooker Super Comps on my '68 with 427/390. They have 1 7/8" primaries and 3" collecters and they fit very well. Installation was quite easy. Unlike small block applications for C3 Vettes, the selection of off-the-shelf big block headers for C3's is rather limited.

I just installed some Hooker supercomp sidepipes in Oct.Picked up some power, and actually lowered the noise level( 
Had 3" exh and headers) even though I'm running the glass packs.Wish they had stainless though(just came out with em for SB)
