if you put 455 headers in the search bar you'll come across many threads with the same question

are they new or used slow 442 ? its something to consider when i get to the point of needing them .to be honest i could spend a week in the woods of the adirondacks without a care but one day in queens would scare the hell out of me :)

I'm just a dumb hillbilly from central MD, and I found NYC to be quite friendly, much nicer than expected. It just smelled like piss.

Used but in good shape! Coated inside and out. Queens isn't as bad as some of the boroughs but if the wind blows just right you might get a wisp of piss stink!

Another option is the early 70's cutlass exhaust manifolds, the factory ones fit in the frame with no mods, just have to bend a down pipe to meet up with the rest of your exhaust. I believe thornton's still makes repop's of them and if you search olds 455 exhaust manifolds on Ebay, there are a couple companies making aftermarket tubular ones now.
