They make ones for your small block 350.

Some of The Pontiac trans am’s came with Olds small block 403’s. Those are the block and frame mounts to use to bolt in Oldsmobile engines
The headers for those cars will fit. Hooker also makes them for the early cutlass’s

Plenty of room in the c10’s for long tubes. I went with Hedman for the price
Don’t use big block headers on a small block, they’ll hang down further under the truck due to the difference in engine deck height dimensions

If you have any questions feel free to ask
Quite welcome, Even though I am from Canada and am a former first responder I will still say it. Thank you for your service.

So if I am understanding what you said above correctly I can use headers intended for a late 2nd gen Fbody with the 403 or headers from similar-year G bodies that would have had the 350. Also, I saw that you used Ford roller rockers on the 455. Would the same application work on my 350 as the SBO and BBO have a lot of parts that can swap over back and forth? The BBO heads are an example of this.
