New here as well.. It just so happens I'm about to list some 455 longtube headers I removed from my 1970-455. They are sand blasted and finished in hi-temp primer. There are no distinguished markings on these to determine manufacturer. They can be yours for $80.00 + shipping to you.

UNK Headers

Hi, I'm no expert, but those headers look just like my Hooker headers, model 3902 below. Does yours have a "pinch" on the number six header tube like in the third pic? This one is from the factory for clearance of the mounting bolt.

I installed a 455 into my 85 Cutlass and had no luck trying to install early 70's headers (big or small block)... I decided to use W/Z Manifolds with 70-72 cutlass/442 front exhaust pipes, and 85-87 442 mufflers & tailpipes... Only modification needed was an extension pipe from the front exhaust pipes to the mufflers and a little bending of the front pipes to clear the cross member....

These headers do not have the "pinch" point at no.6. There is a slotted hole there unlike the others. They seem to have the same flange though.

Probably better off buying year correct or custom for the Regal install...
