Default Header question

I just received the new ZZ4 from Pace Performance including a 650 Speed Demon carb. They were great to deal with. My question is what type headers will fit best in a C-3? I've heard someone say that Hedman shorties work best. Is there any one type that is a best fit? Thanks, JD

I have Hooker Super Comp (1-3/4" tubes) in my '69 & they fit very well & were easy to install. I have also used DynoMax Blackjacks which fit well.

Thanks guys. I believe I will follow suit. BTW, if you see this posted elsewhere you can ignore it. The internet was a little screwy last night. I couldn't seem to get anything posted so I kept trying a few times. Thanx, JD
