Best fit headers for 85 442

Looking to see if anyone has any first hand experience with headers in their G body,
I'm using a moroso 7 qt oil pan, and i also am using a power master mini starter.

If you have a gbody with a 7 qt pan and you have headers, please chime in with your opinion.

Thank you for your time

You did not state which engine, original small block or other replacement?

All SBO fit the same as the 307. ARH are the best for SBO in a G body. Need powermaster mini starter to make it work.

If you went BBO you will need hooker or kooks.

I had a stock pan on my '83, but it had plenty of room with the ARH headers and mini starter. I did have to trim the ears on the transmission case (200-4R) though.
