Not an '80 specifically, but an '82 which is basically identical. Yopuc an't go wrong with the Dynomax headers available through Jeg's, PN: 289-86008. They're already Jet-Hot coated and only cost $209.

I have a set of Hooker Super comp big tubes on my 79. Picked them up used for $100. I had them alumi-coated by a friend...they are excellant..and very easy to put on and take off.

You will like headers.

I too have Dynomax ceramic coated headers on my 80. They are not that hard to install, but you do need to get the car up as high as possible and install from the bottom. I installed my headers and then took it to exhaust shop to add new 2-1/2" exhaust. Go for it!

Regards,

Jim
