I have a 75 torino, and I need to get headers. Everywhere I look I find well priced torino headers for Torinos upto 1973. Does anyone Know if these will fit a 75 Torino ? It is going to be a drag car and all emissions will be eliminated, so If it only wont fit because of emissions, I need to know. Thanks for the input.

Don't do it man. Steel tube headers warp valves at lightning speed. Do more research - maybe you could find a place that makes a decent cast iron header. Or you gould get a coating like Jet-hot or at least seriously wrap 'em. The steel tube headers are 1000 times better with a coating so if you've already bought them look into getting them coated with good stuff. Anything that has a chrome finish is not as good. Chrome is better on non-essential parts like lids, bottles, inner fender panels, etc. Just not motor parts. If you want something shiny on the motor use a non-polished aluminum (it breathes better and doesn't hold excess heat like chrome).
