83 Restore/exhaust help

I am restoring my wifes 83 Camaro. Currently it holds a 305/three speed auto. I am going to remove the 305 and replace it with a 350. Here is my question- What type of headers will I need and what is the best way to run the exhaust pipes since it does not appear to have much room underneath except for the stock Y setup? This is my first attempt at this and need some guidance.

Thanks

Welcome to TGO. Here's what I often recommend (It's a direct-fit system--no cutting, welding, or bending--with arguably the best headers offered for our cars). The system runs in the OE locations:

Hooker 2055's (Jeg's 520-2055). Catco high-flow converter (Summit CTO-9118). Hooker catback (Summit HOK-16823HKR).
