I need a good set of headers for my 82. I have seen a lot of headers and my concern is durability. I dont want them to start out nice  then shoow discoloration,rust, ect. Can you guys recomend a set for the 350 engine.
 
Thanks

Is your '82 stock? If it is then headers won't do much for you at all.

I just noticed your other post about replacing heads, you also need to port the intake & etc.
I have ceramic coated headers from Jet Hot, they are Hooker Side Pipes with the Sterling Ceramic coating it does not shine like S/S or chrome but it will stand up and not discolor. You can get any headers coated, even used ones. Make sure you get the O2 sensor bung welded to the pass. side header (you only need one).
