What exactly do you mean by big block Lightning? The first generation Lightning comes with a 351w small block. If this is your engine then try summit racing, they have lots of options.

Ahh I see... So you mean to say its a stroked/bored out 460? In that case:

You didn't mention the year that the 460 came from, so you'll have to specify.

I'm afraid you are not going to easily find pre-built headers with bigger than 1-7/8" primaries, and with a stroker engine, I'd imagine you're after 2" or greater. You're probably going to have to weld up your own.

Most folks who stretch a 385 series to an inch of its life are not going to have to ask about building up a set of headers. I'd like to hear his story, thats all.
