best headers?
Ok guys
I know this question has been asked many times before, but forum searches come up with weird results.
so here it goes. I recently installed true duel 2 1\2 exhaust with magnoflow 12256's using stock manifolds for now. But yesterday I got a little bonus money and would like to buy a set of headers. nothing fancy(that'll come later)
has to be less than $200. I've found these three options.
1.http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G9003/
2.http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BIG-11106FLT/
3.http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HOK-2456HKR/
My main concern is fitment. I'm looking for YOUR opinion on which pair fit the best. I can't modify anything so I'd prefer as close to a straight bolt on as possible.
Please chime in with some advise this will be my first set of headers.
Thnx

I installed Stan's headers last week and they fit perfect. I was able to install from underneath with no interference and plenty of clearance. They weren't cheap but shouldn't ever have to worry about replacing on this car.

which ever set you purchase they will not fit your recent 2 1/2 exhaust system...You will have to have a muffler shop do the connection unless you have a tube bending machine and extra pipe....

the shop that did the exhaust will be connecting the headers.
I'm afraid of issues like having to remove parts or modify existing parts so the headers will fit. An example is the idler arm hitting the primaries
I have a stock 78 with ps,pb,and ac.
what kind do you guys run? are hookers really worth the xtra $$$.
what kind of problems might i run into installing them?
