I have G30 van 350cid stock engine.
According Summit Racing, Hedman Street Hedders (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hed-69066) may fit to my van. This is Silver ceramic coated, 3" collector diameter. I'm going to use headers with Walker mufflers (3" inlet\2.5" outlet).
Is it coorect choice for my 350cid engine?

The second choice is Hooker Competition Headers (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hok-2459hkr) - it's painted, 2.5" collector diameter. It's cheaper, but is is good like ceramic coated headers?

which year is your van. on summit racing "G30 VAN" is from 70-74 and "G30" is from 75-2002 so watch which ones you order.

so for my 94, according to summit racing Headders these are the ones i need, but im a bit skeptical of the reliability of the website filtering. tho summit seems to be the most accurate.

My van is a 1975 G20 with a lot of 1994 parts thrown in. I had to notch the 1994 transmission crossmember to allow clearance for the exhaust, but that was it. And as I have a slightly smaller doghouse than you do there shouldn't be a problem for you. I have plenty of pics posted on my cardomain page if you click the link at the bottom.

yeah, mines is '79 too.

I'm afraid, painted headers become rusty very fast.
Do you feel diffirence between stock collectors and headers?

Go ceramic coated....painted headers were never intended for year round use through all weather conditions...ceramics will last 3-4 times as long.....
