Default need some help

Hi, Hows it going? first off new to this i have a 87' camaro with a 350ci ive had it for some time but do to personel reasons i have not had the money to work on it so it has set for awhile after swapping the 305 for 350, i have a 411 auburn posi rearend to install on it but first off.
What is a good set of headers to buy for it? and do you have to keep the exhaust ran the same, it dont seem like there is much room to run duel all the way back?
next does anyone know a web site for replacing the interior, seats and so forth while it was in storage some a** poured oil all over the seats and carpet.
and would seats out of a newer camaro fit for the front seats like out of a 4th gen camaro

first some one pouring oil in your car sux big time

if you can bolt/weld the rails from the original seats to the 4th gens then yes you can get them to fit but odds are the 4th gen seats as they are wont line up to the bolt holes in the floor boards

I own an 87 as well and yes 4th Gen camaro's have the same floor pan as the 3rd gen and the seats bolt right in without changing out the brackets. This site (http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/interior.aspx) has everything you will need for the interior of the car granted its a lil pricey, ebay is a good place to look as well or even try your local cragslist adds. Also there is really no way to run true duel exhaust on these cars, as far as headers I have been looking at summit and found these (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-68722/) as they are street legal and will pass emissions as I live in crappy Utah for the moment and they do safety and emissions testing.

Protip: Car doors usually have locks, which prevent people from getting in and mucking about with your car

I don't know where you're located so I can't go looking for you, but it might be worthwhile to just buy another 3rd-gen car. If you get one that isn't running or a base model or something they can come pretty cheap, and you ought to be able to get all the interior parts you'd need out of that.

I mean, I spent 3 seconds looking just now, and I found 3 cars asking from $600-$1000 around where I am. Maybe that's an option for you?
