I went with cast Sanderson. Good clearance, good looks, my starter wouldn't fit and the flanges need to be ground for clearance on brackets and senders in the heads.

It is stock. I am keeping it tame. I really don't want to drive fast just cruise.

I keep telling myself to do a stock setup.....But cant bring myself to it, I'll probably regret it.

You can use any of the 70-81 camaro headers if your running an automatic. Have to run a mini starter or clearance the inner most primary on the passenger side. We never could find 2" primary and 3.5 collector headers for the 65 or my current project 64 shortwide.
