    I have a 1970 Pontiac Tempest that origionally came with a stock Pontiac
    350. With that engine not working and the spare 69 Buick 350 that a luckily
    had saved, I decided I was going to put it in the Tempest, at leaste until I
    get my Buick back to good shape. The only ploblem is that I cannot find
    headers that will fit that engine, and made for that car. I installed my own
    stainless-steel, custom-bent 2.5-inch dual exhaust with Hooker Super
    Competition headers. Would I be able to use another pair of header made for
    a Skylark, considering they are both the same body styles? If not, I heard
    that several companies have headers made for the Tempest with Buick engines.
    Do you have any idea where I might find one of these companies?

    Thanks alot for your time,

    I have never heard of a company that specializes or even sells products related to skylark-tempest conversions. I don't think you'll have many problems bolting the motor in. Especially considering the closeness of the production years.

    Good luck on the transplant! Sorry I couldn't be more help:Do No:

    I would say you shouldn't have any problems with the Buick 350 headers,like mygrain said they're all A-bodies.Call Postons or TA Performance and they should be able to verify.Prices will run anywhere from $289-$365 depending on if you want chrome or Jet-Hot coated or plain:TU:

    TA performance has headers for 350-400-430-455 buick engines and i agree with the rest of the guys on them being a bodies they should fit and TAperformance also has shorty headers now so yeah definatly call them (480) 922-6807 FAX (480) 922-6811:TU:
