I've been thinking about buying a set for my Viv, and with this deal here, I might as well. You get $15 Summit Bucks back for buying them. I know a lot of people are interested in these for their GBodies. Here's the link:

My dealing with flowtech have been less than satisfactory. If you're running an Olds engine I would not recommend them. I bought a set about 10 years ago and they fit perfectly, when those started to go bad (I used them on my winter rat for a couple years) I bought another set, same part #, but they would not even come close to fitting. So I bought another set, same deal, wouldn't fit (hit frame, and control arm). I returned them both and patched up my old ones. A couple years later, they were really bad, so I tried getting another set from them, still no go, I ordered three sets of these headers this time around, and non would fit. To make them work they would have had to have been cut apart, tubes rebent, and welded back together, ther was no simple way. So I ordered Heddman instead, fit perfectly, first time.
 
^ X2 on the Hedman. Mine also fit perfectly.
 
Thanks for the advice, guys. I have heard bad things about Hedmann's fit as well, though. I may forgo headers right now altogether.

i have a set of these flowtech's in my 86 with a sbc and they fit perfect. i will take pics later if you wanna see them.

Thanks but I'm not running an SBC. I'm keeping mine Olds powered. 😀
 
I had hedmann long tubes headers they all bent up. Hit the frame and starter, and I could not even use them on 84 Regal with SBC. I tried to get my money back etc. they laughed. So any chance I can I am going cause them to lose a sale. Those headers are a piece of 5hit. I went Dynotech and am very happy. BTW I am an engineer for an automotive manufacturer.
 
mine where 2nd hand so maybe the original owner had to beat them to fit .... but my long tube Hedmann's fit my car with almost no effort.
