Hey guys what type of headers should I run with the side pipes I have.... the only thing that will fit without modification would be block huggers and I heard they aren't worth the money... And I am not sure if longtubes will fit take a look at this and give me some input...
 
the pipe comes from that corner goes pretty much straight to the manifold

Dante, I'm very pleased with my Stainless ceramic coated block huggers from Sanderson headers installed on a ZZ 4 with 1969 corvette side exhaust.. I would have nothing else, a perfect fit and they line up for the side pipes...Terry

I got my sanderson cc1ap (angle plug) block huggers silver ceramic coated hedders last week. All I can say is I'm glad I bought them, they are nice and really close to the stock manifolds in size. I opted for block huggers because I was concerned about room, heat and denting tubes to make stuff fit. I'm not going to but if I got a smaller reducer I bet they would bolt right on to my stock exhaust.
