Look for headers from a 2nd gen T/A with the 403. I'm not saying they'll fit but I know the 2nd gen F body Pontiac headers fit a Pontiac engine in a 73-77 A body.

Gotcha. I don't think Flowmaster, or really anyone makes headers for these colonnades though. I had great luck with Hedman headers from a 2nd gen bird fitting like a glove, but your 350 Olds is a...

Hard to understand where the issue is. The passengers side is on but the drivers side won't fit? You might have to raise the engine to get it to bolt up. It's not uncommon to have to massage a tube...

74 and 75 both use the clamshell motor mount. It can be a PITA to get all the hardware off the frame mounts though, not easy to get a wrench into a couple spots.
