Header Panel 83 & 79/88 question...
I was wondering will a 79 header panel bolt up to the 83s. If not what about the 88s with the one headlight component?? Trying to get away from 83 ls look.

You are likely going to have a problem buying something "off-the-shelf" that will mouth right up to that without mods on the passenger side.
I have a 1982 El Camino, same underhood everything, with a 400 small block, & had to hammer the underside of one tube to make it clear the suspension. These cars/trucks are very hard to put headers on, unless you get a custom set built. I used Hedman headers. They have been on since 1993. |
The '86-88 LS Montes, the front fenders are not the same as the SC and SS Montes. The LS front fenders are actually 1 inch longer at the wheel well. So if you decide to use the '86-88 piece on your non-LS Monte you'll need to swap front fenders.
A guy on Monte Millennium Generations wanted his LS to be an SS. For the parts to fit and look right he had to buy a complete SS nose and swap it out. I remeber him telling me if you try to use the LS nose on non-LS fenders some of the bolt holes don't line up. http://inlinethumb19.webshots.com/47...600x600Q85.jpg |
Thanx rj I'll probably will just find a 83 header panel around, because I was going to change the looks due to mine being all messed up. But I'll keep da look
