Does Hedman or preferably Hooker sell a shorty header with
1 3/4 primaries. I know jegs and summit don't list any for a thirdgen. But is there a part # that is 1 3/4 that will work with a thirdgen that is listed for a different car like a monte, or maybe a vette. I have a 383 and would like the larger primaries. Will a pair of headers that are for an LS1 or LT1 fit our cars because those headers are 1 3/4. I know SLP has them but their too much $$$ and I don't want air injection tubes either. This is ridiculous if no company sells a shorty with 1 3/4 primaries besides slp thats too expensive. What do all you guys with a 383 or bigger do. Theres no way that everyone runs full length headers. If this is the case I'll start welding up my own shortys with 1 3/4 primaries and sell them. Whats your experience with this topic?

 

I'm pretty sure only SLP makes 1-3/4" shorties.

 

Dude, if you start welding up shorties with 1 3/4" primaries, mandrel bent y-pipe, and (this is the kicker) easily REMOVABLE air tubes... I'd be all about it. But I guess all of that is kinda a stretch.

 

SLP has them available with or w/o A.I.R., coated or uncoated.

You'd better stick with parts made for the 3rd gen chassis if you want to avoid problems.
