Sanded and painted the headers, 1 coat... Is there anything to get the small pits out from previous rusting? If not oh well, just slap a couple coats of paint on them and call it a day. Save a couple bucks refurbishing rather than buying new.

There is a high temp primer by VHT and other companies . That was the brand of paint I used before I started to Cerma -chrome .my headers.
Yea I used the VHT primer and VHT black put another coat of primer and 2 more coats of black. Can still see some pitting but the headers were kinda bad.
Maybe this might be a temporary thing .And until you can if and when you decide another set down the road.
todays headache, was told to go with this starter because I had headers, but it doesn't sit right touching the fly wheel. Also go this fuel line rig, but the part that goes into holley carb has a gap. Would adding an O-Ring work?
Here is the starter sitting up against flexplate. Summit starter box is pictured above. This is a 350 small block is this starter wrong or could you suggest one. Seeing how this has to go back.
I have had more luck with Tilton mini starters. I have a 1981 El Camino SS with a 290 HP 350 ,With FlowTech "shorty" headers .I have had it for years with no issues.
I can't see what you took off but if it was a staggered bolt pattern that is for the 168 tooth flexplate, straight bolt pattern is for the 153 tooth flexplate.
