Default 84 Vette headers

Is there any headers out there from say, a Camaro or firebird
that will bolt up and work on my 84 that are smog legal? In CA.
Or do I have to stick to having to pay over 450$ for a pair made
for the car?? :confused: :nopity

Yes, but the 1 3/4" primaries are way too big for an '84, unless it's heavily modified. He needs 1 5/8ths" primaries.

RACE ON!!!

:bs There are NO smog-legal long tubes that fit your '84. Maybe in Texas, but not in California.

I wasn't thinking of a C.A.R.B., EO number to be smog legal. The '84 has no pre-cats that get eliminated by long tubes, and that was what I based my agreement on.

You can get a set of headers, custom built AND exempted for $450.00??? That is cheaper than the 2149 Hookers. Go for it!

RACE ON!!!
