These are the style used on 65 and 66 Impala, Bel Air and Biscayne 396 425 hp and 427 425 hp engines. These are the same style used on 65 thru 69 396 and 427 Corvettes.

I think you would be hard pressed to get the Vette style manifolds in a Chevelle chassis, especially the passenger side. Headers go back to about the third exhaust port before they turn down to clean the cross member. It would be nice if they did.
