    Hey Everybody,building a cruzer with a stock 302 2 bbl. Car has dual exhaust with stock manifolds. Would headers be worth the trouble and expense or should I leave well enough alone.:huh:

    its really your choice. I would go with headers. Personally I think headers give you more room for plug changes than manifolds do.
    And it will give you better sounds and performance.

    Thanks for the reply I forgot to say car has column shift automatic. I have heard this setup can be tricky with headers.
