No clue on the headers, especially with the engine swap. I think that's gonna be a hard one.

Shorty headers might work. Try TA Performance. I think the 66 and 67 Electra were basically the same frame with the 430 engine replacing the 401/425. I would start looking for long tubes for a 67 Electra. I think the frame changed in 68 which might require another header if one was made for the 68+.

I am also thinking that you know enough to use a composite gasket with that head/block combination and to switch to a pushrod oiled rocker/pushrod/lifter and plug the rocker oilers in the head, but just in case.................
