Swapped out 327 and in 396...used bb stand and mounts. 1966 malibu convert.

What headers have you guys found success in bolting in with no real issues?

What radiators are you guys using (396 will be around 500 HP when done and want to keep it cool.

Just want to get a read on what works before I buy guys.

Hedman Elites seems to get the best reviews for fitment for a 66.
Alumnitech radiators. Don, the owner, is a sponsor on this site.
Hope this helps you out.

I have a 66 Convertible with a 912 HP 588 BBC, I have a set of Lemons Headers, they're a little expensive but they sit closer to the body then my Trans Pan so you can have your car as low as you want & not worry about them hitting those pesty speed bumps. For my radiator i have a Ron Davis with shroud & twin fans, CSR Electric water pump, I'll let it idle all day long in 100* weather & it wont get over 190*
