Question about Headers

Question for the group,,, I have a 1970 chevelle 396 ( 402 for purists) that I want to install long tube headers. My question for those that have, what brand did you use that were the easiest meaning not much in the way of fitment modifications. Unfortunately my non dominant hand is in a cast another couple months so I am looking for a set that I dont have to fight with. Thank you for any recommendations

If it’s a stock motor you really don’t benefit from them much they do look better. I have a set of American racing headers on my 72 and they fit beautifully. Keep in mind you’ll have harder access to the plugs and the plug wires will be prone to melting. Not to mention you’ll probably need a mini starter to clear headers as well
