I have read about the headers from cheif many horses and a couple others but cheifmanyhorses.com is now gone and the other set I found on www.pontiacgroup.com says discontinued.

Is there anyone still making headers for this swap or am I on my own?

Thanks!

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

I changed the title of your thread to distinguish it from a small block Chevy 400 question.

(I don't know the answer to your question. Sorry.)

thanks Five7.

I am really wanting to get my car running again, I have had it since I was 16 and it has been dead in the garage for the past few years.

I have a '76 Pontiac 400 that should be going into the shop soon and will come out around 385hp. I have read the swap is not too difficult but I would really like to be able to run some headers with it.

Thanks again to anyone who might have some insight on this.

from what ive heard complete motor mounts for a 1977-79 trans am should work! though not sure on the frame bolt pattern, for headers you will need hedmen p/n 35140 1970 headers and altering the route the #7 primary( not sure if they even make them anymore though), for the tranny you will need a jegs p/n60170 tranny mount adaptor to bolt up a bop tranny!
