85 Camaro Header Recommendation

STR001 · 06-16-2017, 08:34 PM

I am changing from a 330hp crate engine to a carbureted 305 setup for my 85 Camaro stocker. I have been using Doug Thorley's 1 3/4 inch conventional long tube headers with the crate engine. Will these headers work on the 305 for now? I know that I will need to probably use a step header with the 305 combination sooner than later. I realize that Elston, Weldperformance, and Pete Z produce top of the line headers. They are very knowledgeable and build a great product. However, I am sure everyone is not running $3,000 headers on their car. What other headers are out there for this application that have worked well in the past? I welcome any advice. Thanks in advance. Jason
