Title: Will 83 El Camino headers fit my 87 R-10?
Post by: 1976Scottsdale on March 11, 2008, 09:34:25 pm

I got a set of headers given to my by a friend off of his 83 El Camino parts car.  They are almost brand new.  I am wondering if they will fit on my 87 chevy R-10 4x2 pickup with a 305 and 700r4?  No great loss if not but they are nice and I was hoping they might work.  I know I need to add an o2 sensor bung.  They are not long tube either.  The collector is about 4 or 5 inches long.

i'm guessing yes.

i guess the best way to find out is to start measuring.

no they will not fit. i tryed years ago trying to put 79 elky headers on my 83 c-10. the drivers side hits the lower controll arm and you can't get it to bolt up.
