2.8 Headers on ebay!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...me=rvi%3A1%3A1

says it comes out of an early 80's pontiac with a 2.8. IIRC the only early 80's pontiac with a 2.8 was the firebird.

From what I can see those will *not* bolt to our cars. Look at the angle on the bolt holes.. one pair are off at a 45 degree angle, the next pair are off at the opposite 45 degree angle.. our flanges are straight up and down bolt holes...

And if pontiac made a version of the citation, there goes your "it has to be a firebird" theory right out the window...

Those aren't 2.8 headers- Those are off of a 90* V6, not a 60* v6.
They way you can tell right off the bat is the center primary doesn't favor the right side like it does on the 60- v6.
