Hot Headers

I have an 85' Camaro TPI upgraded to a 5.7 with correct injectors and tuning analyzer shows all ECM in/outputs within normal range, I am running SLP stainless headers I have had to heat coat and wrap my headers and they still run hotter than !@#$% anyone else have this problem? What helps?

Thanks

Tony

Headers for 455 in 84 TA.

I have found a set of 4 tube headers that are a bolt in when doing this swap. There are NO modifications to make. I am using a Spohn 400 turbo crossmember with their torque arm. I have 77 TA block mounts with steel Moroso chevy frame mounts. You will need to do some figuring if you plan on running a full exhaust system. These are really nice headers and at Half the cost that some are selling that are supposed to bolt right in. The only possible concern may be on the left side location of brake lines. I am running all new lines so I do not see a prpblem. Hope this helps. I went through many brand names and styles, and these work!
