BEST HEADERS FOR A '78 Silveardo
« on: August 08, 2009, 05:16:17 pm »
Hello all!

I have a '78 short box Silvy,  completely stock 350, lowered 3" in front/ 4" in back(nice rake to it!)

What would be the best shorty header to use?

I would like it to dump out at the firewall and not a header set that dumps straight down.

^ Man, that is unbelievably cheap, especially for 304 grade stainless steel. Like dumb cheap. Funny how a PAIR of SBC headers can sell for that, yet guys with Civic's pay $400+ for ONE header.  lol  That makes me grin.

I bought the same set for a 95 as a back up.  It sounded like I had a cracked manifold but lucked out with a new stud kit and donut gaskets installed.  I am impressed with the craftsmanship and they are nice enough to hang on the wall.  I may try them on my 86 project
