I was lookin through your pictures and believe it or not, we have a 78 vette and a 2003 srt 4 in my family too. I'm assuming that the srt 4 was yours also. |bouncy|

Sorry, I have not replied. Work at Kmart is rough. Haha! Well the route is this:
http://fattyslims.com/vette/specs.txt
Question is going back to headers. I don't know either hookers, or hedman. I am still having problems the guy whose rebuilding the engine said keep stock. I doubt I should. I don't want soem crappy headers where the bolts fall off everyweek. Can anyone suggest anything good (that I don't have to mod) for my '77? Also what distributor, and coil should I get, or should I just stay stock? And the fuel pump should I stay manual, or go electric?

Thanks guys!

I used the cheaper dynomax ceramic coated ones and never yet had a problem with the bolts loosening. I used stainless allen head bolts though.
