Are you going carburetor or fuel injection? I have heard about the headers but i think there is some slight modification involved not sure. I am still working out my intake solution on my BBC swap. But i am using a ls1 pcm and going with coil per cylinder

You'll need to modify the headers if you are using the off the shelf hookers.
I can't remember which primary (see the sticky) but one has to be cut and re-welded to clear the steering linkage. Or you can go for a set of Lemons headers which will be aroung $1300.
Good luck with the swap. I think you may have a pretty rough time getting it done in such a short period of time.

If you are running stock heads the 2455's will work just fine except for one of the passenger side primaries. They will come close to hitting down by the LCA so you might have to dent them a little. Yes you can use the stock system but you will have to replace the stock plastic lines with something and get an adjustable regulator so you can turn down the pressure. Cowl depends on the carb you are running, you might have to get rid of the wipers.
