Weld up header kits

I want a set of 1"7/8 long headers for my 383(nice F1 arriving this week). Been looking at the posts on here and checking out vendors.....,not much. So wondered if anyone had used a SBC weld up kit and fab'ed up their own.
How much cutting about is needed ect.
Would love some Lemons,but not at that price and lots to do on Quays for the money. Ok l sound cheap but dont forget to add shipping and two lots of tax to the price.

I think the amount of fab work and trial fitting wouldn't be worth it.

England is not in europe?

Off-Topic: I think that refers to BREXIT. Brits voted out of the euro.

Yea think you're right but just needed someone else's point.
Looks like Hedman Huslers.

Oh and England has always been England and just we HAD an alliance with Europe.
We got a fence,its called The English Channel.

Re: Weld up header kits

I got some Hooker longtubes from my 91 I no longer need. Can get you the part number if you're interested. No Y-pipe, but I have the flanges still so fabbing one should be easy.
