Picked up an '87 Firebird Formula the other day to start as my first project car.

Turn that sumbish into Knight Rider. ;)

No pics because the car is parked as my friends house (much better place to store/work on it than my own).
Not going to switch to carb. And I don't have thousands of dollars to spend on new parts; I can spare like $1-200 per month.

One thing I am curious about, what is a good set of AFFORDABLE heads for the 350 tpi?

I thought shorty headers were pretty much useless?
I don't wanna fuck with installing long tubes and from what I've read on other sites they say short tubes are useless.

I was gonna buy short tube stainless steels and stainless steel ypipe and high flow cats.


Yes.

Correct. Better than manifolds usually but not worth the cost/effort. Long tubes or bust.
