headers for 84 z-ho??

what are the best headers for fit/price for a 84 camaro z-28 h.o. ? the motor is a early 70s 350.i want something that will fit easily (i know all headers have an inherit pain in the a$$ to install),but i am looking for something that will fit nice,without a whole ton of fabricating,and STILL BE AFFORDABLE
THANKS ALOT!

86 camaro:was a v6 car,now its going to be a v-8 5.7l!!
350:cylinders bored .040 over.a little over 9:1 compression(getting a blower some day when im rich lol)line bored.deck is milled a little(was pitted)
trw forged pistons with summit stage 2 polished rods with arp bolts.
194? intake valves(not 2.02( ),pocket ported,gasket matched,and polished ports,old vette intake with new zinc 650 holley

ase certified for a few years,learned alot though

working on freakin NEONS ,cirruses,tauruses,cobras(well` at least they look nice lol)and intrepids all day makes me drink too much
good job security though

im always on the lookout for cheapv-8 t-5,s
and t-56 setups.they must be cheap.i dont care of they need rebuild,as long as they arent totally blown

well I have used slp edlebrock and headmen headers and it has been my experince the sometimes you have to spend a little more to avoid alot of head aches. We have the same car accept I have a 87 350 and the slp was less problems if any than the others IMO..

I bought Hedman headers p/n HED-68476 for my 84HO 305 from Summit. They do not have the AIR fittings. They are ceramic coated. They cost $282.95. They seem to do well. With the addition of an Edelbrock performer intake, headers, and nice exh. I took .6 sec off my quarter mile and went from 89mph to 94.77mph. I have not had any problems with them sealing and they look great.

I had to lift the passenger side of engine about 1.5" to get the header on.

that dosent bother me....on my last camaro i ended up cracking the heater box because i bought a set of flow-techs from auto-bone
and i ended up destroying them and throwing them away after two days of fighting because the pass side woulkd not fit.
i was just looking fo ra set of headers that come with part or all of the crossover.
