Cant find that ebay coated header thread

I'm building the original 70 motor that came in my truck w/vortec heads, and I remember a thread that someone got some ceramic coated headers off ebay for around $150. Im thinking they were a passenger car application maybe??
I believe they were block huggers or mid-length
Can anyone help me find this thread
Thanks

Re: Cant find that ebay coated header thread

I got mine from white performance on ebay and they fit really well, although they are ceramic coated truck headers 88-95 mid length. Scored them for about $180 shipped. I found that the camaro/chevelle headers hit the DS motor mount and wouldn't work for me. Check out my build thrread, I think they ar on page 4

Those look good

Man thats a tight fit. Thanks for the reply

I wonder if there's any other options out there?

I have some NIB summit headers for our trucks I bought a couple years ago, but there cheesy, and full length, which I'll probably sell at a loss.

No other option I know of in the $200 range. As for how close they are to the frame there is almost 5/8-3/4".The primarys are stacked so the motor would have to move side to side to touch.
