I doubt the driver's side will work. If it did, they would have listed it.

Cross member, control arm, steering box, and or steering shaft. There is very little room to fit 4 pipes thru that area. The front pipe hangs way too low.

It does look like the #1 cylinder might be a problem. Well, I guess there’s one way to find out. Thanks for the response

My good friend is looking for headers for his 63 Chevy II Nova with a 350 & auto trans, wonder if these would fit?

My friend just ordered a set, he's putting a 302 in his early 90's 4 whl drive truck so if they don't fit the 63 Chevy II hopefully they'll fit in the truck

I used a set of full length headers from a 69 Camaro in my first '67 Malibu & they fit without issue on a 283/327.

However the #1 tube on these remind me of the Hedman mid-lengths I used on the LS1 in my last '67....which I had to dimple to clear the crossmember.

I tried to buy those, when I got to the pay now portion and click the "place order" it does not do anything. That sucks as it's really a good deal.
That’s too bad. I had no problem ordering mine. I tried to get the ceramic coated ones but they were sold out.

Maybe try a different internet browser.

My friend placed his order and paid for them but he's in Italy now on vacation, I'll ask him if he got them when he gets back, I'm sure his son is picking up his mail etc.

I've seen more than one listing where they have Chevelle and Camaro under the same part number

Here's a big block set that lists Chevelle, Nova, and Camaro for fitment.

Hedman Hedders 68196 Hedman Street Headers | Summit Racing
This line of thinking works to a degree.....many of the basic SBC header offerings in the smaller 1-1/2 and 1-5/8" pipe size are designed with multiple vehicle fit in mind. Big block 1-3/4" and sometimes 1-7/8" is the same way
As the tube size gets bigger those cross-fits disappear.

For example, Hooker 1-3/4" SBC Super Comps wont interchange between Chevelle and Camaro/Nova....while the common 1-5/8" Comp header fits Camaro, Nova, Chevelle, full size, and even the 73-87 2wd trucks. From the late 1960s clear up to late '77 on cars and '87 on trucks.

As you go bigger on tube size the routing has to change to get them all in the space and clear everything.

I won't argue that.
There are too many variables to the header game.
I've even seen sets designed for a different application fit better than the ones designed for it.

But you're quoting me and kind of stating the obvious to what point?
All I did was answer the OP's question of if there was a chance of that set of shortie headers fitting and attached an example.
Did I give some misinformation or something?

Believe me I'm well versed in the large tube game also.
My early A-body has 2 1/8" primaries on a big block
