Fricken Headers!


First lets start with my car. I have a 1988 Pontiac GTA with a 350 TPI. OK now that that is out of the way let move on to the question. Have any of you gotten normal headers on this engine. THERE IS NOT ROOM. Am I going to have to get block huggers. What is the best ones to get.
Thankyou
JM

I put Hooker shorties on my Camaro, they fit fine. I was thinking I'd have the same problem with regular headers as you seem to have.

There's a lot more room than you think ...

Headers that fit:
SLP
Edelbrock
Headman shortys
Hooker SuperComp shortys
Hooker SuperComp long tubes

Curious as to why you say there is not room?

I don't know, Just by looking there doesn't seem to be much room. I haven't really checked it out yet. Thanks for the tip though

The first mechanical thing i ever did was put slps on my car, no problems, except getting the brake lines screwed back into the master cylinder. I had to move them to the other side of the steering shaft, to close for comfort.
