Big Saint. These are the ones you want. Hedman Hedders 68608 - Hedman Elite Hedders
They are ceramic coated. They'll give you a good sound and they look good.

Big Saint. I have Long Tube Headman. But I should have gone with those shortys. My boy Godson has them on his elco. Check out his page on Cardomain. You will like what you see. I really like those. He still has AC and there were no issues installing them on the passenger side with all that AC crap still there. Hope this helps.

as they say speed costs and I would not put any headers on that were not coated to help keep the heat down

X2 especially when your dealing with retrofit bolt on parts, if your tring to stay smog legal remember you need to get ones with the a.i.r tubes like these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-68793/ not sure if 80's had them tho but without the y pipe that comes in that kit im unsure that you will be able to bolt them on to your existing system, so some work will be required.

I just picked these up http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HOK-2451-1HKR/ but havn't dropped the motor in yet, we will see what trouble I run into.

Big Saint. Honestly I would not recommend any in the 100-200 range. I had the regular hedman shortys that are 175 but they are not coated, they made my engine bay look dirty, they run hotter. At the end i sold them for 50 bucks and then bought long tubes. Had I not been cheap and gone with the coated shortys from the start I would have been fine. So I learned my lesson. You don't have to learn yours. Trust me. Spend the extra dollar. Well worth it.

I agree 100% I've purchased multiple items in the past just to take the cheap way out. In the end I had to buy the expensive part because the cheaper version didnt work out. You end up spending more in the end. You gotta "pay to play!" 8)
