I have a 83 trans-am with a 350 from a 76 gmc truck running a holley 650 dual feed single pump and I was wondering what headers I will need if anyone has done a engine swap like this before ive been working on this car for almost three years it almost feels like time to drive it. any help is greatly appreciated

 

Having a 350 in your car isnt unique in it's self. You'll need to select a set of headers that will work within the confines of the space of the engine bay. Since it's probably not emmissions cluttered, you have an advantage for work space. However, it may limit you to your header selection to those companies manufacturing quality non-emmisions style headers. Hedman and Hooker make headers that will work. You just need to decide if you want shorties or full length tubes and or coated or non.

Jet-Hot sells both Hedman and Hookers and the y-pipe if you're interested, check their site or give them a call. Otherwise, Summit or Jegs etc.

 

Thank you i will probably have to go with shorty headers since im gonna run side pipes and turn out before the wheels. It just makes it difficult since the a frame comes out in my way on my pass. side and my dipstick is on the drivers side in my way I will deffinatly have a look for some headman or hooker headers do you know wich will give me the best sound after 3 yrs this car needs to be right and your right about the emmision junk out of the way I even got rid of my interior fan housing which was a huge pain when installing the engine.

 

Long tubes will give you a better quality sound, shorties are kinda high pitched... Long tubes will give you a bit more power as well.. I picked up alot more low end TQ when i made the switch from shorties to LT's
