Hey big block guys. My friend has a 78 Monte Carlo. He wants to put a rat in it and has some questions. First, what kind of headers to use. He seems to think BBC Malibu headers will fit, and is looking for a set under $300. Also, what oil pans and mounts are you guys using? Any help appreciated, its been 12 years since its been on the road and he wants her back.

I'm running the shorty hedman's in my 78 cutlass, there still not a direct fit, but starter access is great., Now the hooker 2455s will fit with some mods, mainly the lower control arm bosses needing some trimming.

The BBC Malibu headers will fit his Monte.

He wants to run a 2 inch primary, he has 1 3\4 now bit he says they're restrictive. Looked around last night and might try the 2455 idea since its more cost effective
