Headers for my setup

I'm about to purchase headers for the latest addition to my family...a 91 TA. It has the L89 350 with dual cats and I'm about to get some Spohn SFCs. Which brand of smog legal headers do I need to clear the SFCs? Keep in mind, SLPS, while nice, are too expensive for my blood. I'm talking Dynomax, Edelbrock, etc. Also, this engine bay is PACKED! How much would it cost me to have the headers installed? Thanks for the help.

If you dont like SLP's, then anything but Edelcrock.

Hmm, you have an aluminum headed 396 BBC? The 350 TPI is an L98/B2L.

Kevin summed it up well , but personally I'd say (other than SLP) Hooker or Hedman.

get the SLPs on the group purchase price and install them yourself. Unless you're "a pretty big wheel at the cracker factory," the cost of installation isn't worth it.
