83 Bonneville Headers

I have an old 83 Metric Bonneville with a pretty hot 361 Chevy in it. Got IROC Z manifolds now, but want headers. Nobody lists any. Will the same year/body Monte Carlo fit?

I can't say about the Monte headers. Caprice "Classic" headers should fit.

Re: 83 Bonneville Headers

Monte, Regal, Cutlass headers for a 305 will fit. Same frame. Where you may run into issues is if you're still going to try and use the factory "single hump" trans crossmember. It causes interference with any large tube/long collector performance headers.

Re: 83 Bonneville Headers

Cool thanks for the replies. I already found a site that shows a crossmember so I'll be in good shape there. I just can't wait to hear it!

Here's that crossmember, just scroll down to the second one:
