Howdy Back Jeff:
Bill's "Good Luck" may have been refering to the interference of the starter with a header on these vehicles. But know that both Clifford and the newest source for parts CI, our host on this forum, have improved over the years- especially CIs. But you should also know that a header is a very high expense and to really utilize the potential they bring a coordinated engine upgrade is required. There are several other, more cost effective things you can do to "optimize the performance" of your ride.
For example, if you are committed to a fairly stock engine for the time being, and upgrade of you ignition by installing a Petronix Ignitor in place of your contact points. The upgrade will eliminate the need for regular maintainance to re-establish the point gap, will allow you to run a wider spark plug gap for a hotter, more reliable spark. The kit runs about $60 & install will be fairly simple. You should notice a smoother idle, better power and economy.
The other investment is to upgrade you stock exhaust system with 2" diameter pipe and a Turbo type muffler. If you do go to a header at some point in the future this much will already be in place. The best time to do this is when you need some exhaust system repair.
After this you will really need to do some thinking and planning as to what you want, how much you can spend- in other words, have a plan.
Does your '67 have the three speed with full synchros? Do you know where your car was distributed from? I'll be anxious to hear what your spark plugs tell you. How many miles on your engine?
Adios, David
