I have a 1964 Plymouth Valiant with a 225 slant six and was looking for dual headers dual exhaust system. Would headers from a slant 6 truck fit.

They may hang down low. Also I have read that the front tube may hit the steering box.
If you are good with a welder You can make 'um work.
 
No, they do not fit. AussieSpeed has some. Clifford has some. Then there are the Dutra Duals. AussieSpeed also carries them.
 
Also remember that in order to run true duals on an early A body, the transmission mount/crossmember needs to be modified for clearance of the second set of pipes (the chassis wasn't designed with dual exhaust in mind)- for a fairly low-key street motor I'd seriously consider a big single exhaust. It'll breathe plenty for a warmed up slanty.

They actually respond better to a good single exhaust. Make a 2 into 1 off the headers.
 
Both above I agree to. Built several Slants using 2 into 1 2 1/2 exhaust. This is a 64 Dart.
In the photo you can see what I was talking about the front pipe and the steering box.

I'm using 6 into 1, 2 1/2 inch exhaust. The muffler itself currently is some aftermarket stock that was on the car when I got it. It's 2" in and out on the muffler. Question: Which muffler do you recomend at the rear for good flow but no drone and not loud? Want my cake and to eat it too! Thanks for any input!
 
I have used these many times.Not loud nice rumble.Drone depends on the car and engine itself.The Slant photo had a Bullet race muffler no tail pipe.,so it was loud. I used these DynoMax on Slants too.
My 373 Valiant had a drone on a up hill pull around 40ish mph. Same mufflers on my LA 318 Belvedere no drone at all.
You may want to use a resonator or not till you drive you ride.
