Hey guys working on a 79 malibu I just got. They guy that I bought it from put a chevy small block 350 in it but for some reason left the stock manifolds after putting on a $500 exhaust. Will any shorty headers fit on the car that fit a small block 350 or do I need something special???
 
lol summit search it. I am running full length "flowtech" afterburner series, but they make flowtech shorties too, just look up the right headers for your car!
 
I also had flowteck headers (regular ones) on my 78 malibu, and the only issue that i had was the colum gear linkage would rub up on one of tubes. A lil bend fixed the problem..

how do you like the flowtechs? they fit pretty good? dont rub on anything? i was looking at those for mine.

they fit great on my regal, so they should fit the same on your malibu.
 
i got a cutlass. but they are all the same. i wont be using any kinda angle plug heads or nothing like that. so i'm sure they will work fine.
 
supposedly you will need a shorter spark plug for one cylendar 6, but i did not check to see if a regular one would have worked, i just put the short one on there
