They should fit since they are both A bodies.

At a guess, there'd be more room in the wider '72 model than in the '65...

Maybe. 67' & up cars were wider with a larger engine bay than the pre-67' A-bodies. If you have the headers already, I'd say give it a try. BTW, which engine is in the car?

Anything better than Spitfires would be worth 3X the price of 67 and up headers. I say sell them and buy the correct ones and pocket the change.

I believe Doug Thorley builds a beautiful header specifically for your application! 340 in pre-67 Barracuda. A friend has this application and the fit and finish of the header is very nice.
