Default GM A Body Headers with 4L80E

Will the Hedman HuslerŽ LS Engine Swap Headers 45043 work with 4l80e? Looking for anyone who has tried this set up.

Have you called Hedman and asked them?

That would also be my recommendation (to call and ask). Over the years, if there's one thing I've learned, it's to call the manufacturer (not so much email, but call if you can) and discuss things with them. Helped me many a times with a plethora of parts for my car over the years (even had them send different parts in exchange for wrong ones with shipping paid, give advice/tips/tricks, etc). Although, there's always going to be certain ones that you can't get a hold of or just really don't help (but worth a shot).

I was also wondering if anyone knows of a motor and mid plate setup of a 1970 A Body?

I used Dougs long tubes, fit great. Had to move the brake valve that was bolted to the inside of the frame. 6.0 4L80e.

I have the Hedman Hustler headers on my 1965 Buick Skylark and I am running a 6L80 which is a large transmission. They clear just fine. They also have plenty of ground clearance.

You don't specify what year model A-body, but if your speaking of the 68-72 variety then the new Hooker swap headers for that application are designed for compatibility with the 4L80/4L85 trans also and relocation of the brake proportioning valve is not required to install them.
