86 Iroc z28 355

I got a 86 Iroc Z28, with a 355ci making roughly 310hp (carb'd) and a 700r4. Want to put true duals with headers, any recommended kits? Looking at hooker 2460 headers, but have no idea what to do as far as the rest. Have no lift to custom make it, AIR system is gone. Any help?

ended up getting the summit 99.99 cheapos. I highly recommend painting them again with high temp paint, before installing. fitment isnt too bad. but **** is close.

For the record the Hedmans are a great header and a great value. You need to trim a non-important part of the a-arm perch off and dent one of the primaries around the steering box and thats about it.

That paint is just to prevent rust between manufacture and installation. It's not meant to stay on.

If you want to paint them, makes ure you use some high temp header paint.
