Tubular headers stock for '68 Coupe 327/350HP?

[dszrex]

Hello, I helping a girlfriend with a 1968 coupe that was left to her by an aunt. It's a 327/350HP model and it seems to be original and in original condition. It has tube headers on it - Can anyone tell me if tubular headers were offered as a factory upgrade or would they be aftermarket? Thanks in advance.

No car came from the factory to the general public with tube headers that I know of. Most came with the cast manifolds. If you need more info you can pm me. Thanks, grant

thanks a bunch Grant - that's what I thought, but I am not well versed with Vettes.

Are those "under car" headers or "sidemount" headers. IIRC "Kustom Tunnel Tube" side headers carried a GM part number to be legal for SCCA racing.
