I've had these headers as garage art for quite some time.

Always planned to use them on something, but never have been motivated. Well, with the 74 Laguna, I'm getting motivated. Do these look like they'd work on a 74 with a 350? There aren't any names or numbers to look up. As I remember, I got these for a 71 Camaro I once had so they might work.

I just wanted to see if anyone might have had similar experience with headers that looked like these. Of course I wouldn't use the shop vac hose to connect them up. It was occupying the wall hook before I hung the headers and just stayed there.

Thanks

The one on the left is definitely good to go for your laguna. The one on the right is slightly upswept on the two front tubes. Dont think its a problem just that I havent seen one like the right one in the pic.

My old 1 5/8" hooker headers paperwork showed that they fit early 70's camaros/ 73-77 chevelles...not sure it helps.It's difficult to tell by eyeballin' 'em when 1/8" difference could ruin your day.

Camaro headers will definitely fit. That one on the right looks "vette-ish" to me.

Judging by the flanges and the overall appearance, it does seem like they are a matched set. I got these at a swap meet probably 20 years ago and all I remember was the guy saying they fit a 2nd gen Camaro. Guess I might have to try an install with the driver's side first as that one might be the challenging one. I wanted to get them ceramic coated before I installed, but I guess it might be better to see if they go in first, and then maybe get them coated next winter.
