I'm pretty sure the 301 will take the same headers as any 2 gen. 350 to455 firebird.

just wondering what you are doing with a 301 pontiac?

I would rather have a used 305 chevy? Defenitely not worth hotrodding, weak crank and journals...I found out the hard way in high school in my 81 ta.

get a good local shop to do something custom, you won't find a bolt on exhaust system that will fit worth crap.

BTW chuck norris posts = gay

If he cares about performance at all tell him to put a real Pontiac motor in it. The 301 is good for scap metal. Even a 403 Old is 10 times the motor.

The guy does not also happen to have a blue WRX also does he?
