No pics, Ram Air and some cheapy three tube headers are now the only option since IA closed up.

Let me know for sure how the mock up goes because that could be a route I go in the very near future. Thanks.

I have the RM-1-OS manifolds on my '78 and they fit very well. The car's in storage until May, but I can get you pictures then if you need.

They will. I had them on my 80 Grand Am with the 455. There was no problem at all.

if its just going to be a street car,you can use the manifolds,but if your going for any type of performance i wouldnt use 3 tube headers they are hp killers,being i have been running a 80ga to now a 80 lemans and have gone from a 12sec 400 to a 9.90sec 505.i would try a set of headman headers for a 67 gto for the dports, if you bang the firewall alittle and i mean alittle on the drivers side and trim the rear lower control arms they will go in, i know, i,ve done it, in the jan 07 issue of hpp my car is in there with a 455 i borrowed and my old 4 tube headmans that i put back in for the dport motor
