    Hey,
    I have a '87 T-Type, My motor is a '70 355, and was wondering if the TA headers will fit on the car???? I have heard stories about them not fitting. My car is overdrive if that helps at all , what modifications would needed to be done for the headers to clear, or would they just fit snug for a 350

    .030 over 350, I presume. That would make something like 354.6 which, rounded up, would be 355? ??

    i dont see why they wouldnt fit, i have my 455 with the ta headers squeeze in my 84, the 350 should be a dream, im sure you have to do it the same way i did when i put my sbc in there at first, set the headers in there with bungee cords holding them to the sides and drop the motor in between them.

    Thats good news, I was just confused. I was thinking about TA competition headers, or poston headers. The headers should fit in the car with no problems I assume, or will there be modifications needed :Do No:
