Headers for 427 BBC?

okay yall, i got a good one. if this issue has already been addressed in another thread, please feel free to point me to it. im looking for some headers for my 84 z28. its got a 427 BB with 454 heads. im thinking long tube headers for more torque (am i correct on that?) but i want something that will not be a huge pain to hook up to the rest of the exhaust system. i believe that it has 2 1/2" exhaust on it right now, if that helps. also, something thats not overly expensive, but looks nice, so probably something ceramic coated (not painted). im just starting to think that i might have some clearance issues with the big block and the tranny, but im sure with some time, patience, and a welder, i could make something work (id just have to learn how to weld! lol). anyways, if anyone has some info for me, id greatly appreciate it. thanks!

Daniel

Check the BBC sticky in the top section of the Engine Swap forum.

I'm kind of fascinated with the Patriot header idea.
