Doug Thorley Headers
Can anyone out there verify Doug Thorley Headers? I have a set that are supposed to be real? the only thing I can find for indentification is a four diget number on each one and R and L for left and right on the flange on the engine side.

Re: Doug Thorley Headers
Doug Thorley is still in business and has a web site. Maybe there is an old timer still around that will know how to ID the 1969 headers.

Re: Doug Thorley Headers
Did get in touch with them, they now use # 313 for the part number on the big block headers. The ones I have have the part number # 2285. No one there can remember the part number they used in the late 60s, but were stamped on the flange.

Re: Doug Thorley Headers
Speaking of headers, who makes the best fitting Big Block headers for '70 G body and '69 F Body cars?

Re: Doug Thorley Headers
That part number sounds like a Hooker Header part # as they use 4 digits. I checked an old catalog and they have a #2285 listed for 1967-69 Camaro or 1968-72 Nova with big block. Shows to be 2 1/8x36. Hope this helps.
