im in need of headers. and a buddy told me he would give me a set of hooker longtube headers. from a late 80s early 90s camaro. they will be goin in a 86 cutty with a sbc. i know its simpler to get them to see if it will fit. but i cant get them till mon. and figured someone on here might have been thru this already

Yes your right someone has tried this before, and the answer is no but its really close I acually got the right 1 one a little finessing but I just couldn't get the left on and I just about had the engine out but you can give it a try it is close ... but I dont think it'll work. :?

i had a set of 78 firebird headers on mine and when i changed engines they wouldnt fit my angle plugs heads and now i have shorty camaro headers on it for now and yes they fit but the collector hit the frame on the passenger side but im buying new headers next month for it

well i ordered the jegs brand shorty headers. they say they will fit 80s camaros as well as g bodys. the ones i was gonna have given to me were long tubes for camaros so i dont think they would have worked.
