Headers?

[BlackWidow]

Which headers will fit an 87' TBI? Ive heard of fitment issues with the plugs and plug wires. Any help?

I know that hooker competition headers fit with no issues.

mine was for an older K5. I had no problems on my 89. I'm going to try to find the part #.

i just put on edelbrock headers and y pipe and the only thing i can say it the ti tech coating is a little misleading but the fitment was good on the headers but a little tough on the y pipe because someone welded a joint that should have been bolted. but clearence is good and they sound good but i never drove the truck without headers so i cant say much for the performance

I can't find the part #. Put they are coated dynomax ones. If I find more Info I'll post up.

I have the Edelbrock ones for TBI engines with the Ti-Tech coating. I like them but changing spark plugs is a PITA, the dipstick wont line up right with the bolt holes in the head (getting a different dipstick), and some of the smog crap (air pressure check valves) are mounted in the way if you want to install wire looms that bolt up to the valve covers. They look great and bolted up pretty easy. Just be sure to get quality header gaskets. The paper ones suck.

I just put a set of Hedman hedders on my 87 TBI, 454. They were model number HED-69386. They work great, have only had them on a week but am very please with them. I am running some straight boot accel 300 wires and 3 of them are close to the pipes, so i zip tied them back a little to keep them from melting while i look for some single 90 degree boot wires to replace them with. Other than that, they fit good. Everything fit back where it was supposed to and the plugs are easy to reach.

I put the Doug Thorley's on my 90TBI. Fit is great with no issues at all.
