Re: headers?

long tube headers work with these cars, i had one person tell me they had to put the headers in place and lower the motor in cuz it was so tight

Re: headers?

You need to do a lot more reading. Start with a search under "long tube headers" on this board. You will learn a ton instead of trying to get someone to spoon-feed you info on a subject that has been covered in "exhaustive" detail. Then if you have a question...

Re: headers?

Read this.........then you can go from there with any questions that arent answered.

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/exha...oker-long.html

First question you should ask yourself is........Do i NEED full length headers?
unless you are making 400+rwhp and seeing the tach pass the 6 on a regular basis.........the answer is NO

Dyno Don, the guy who posted the pictures, makes them. They seem to be the best headers for our cars, and I have never seen a bad review of them. I am dying to get a set for my car, but I'm saving up right now (in college).

Yeah same here (JC student! lol) if i had the cash i would of gotten them! But instead i grabbed hookers 2055. Im also in California so we got the smog ****'s out here and i was unable to get ahold of SLP to get a 'new' carb sticker. So they kinda went out the window. But if you dont have to worry about a damn carb sticker these things are the way to go!!!!!!!!!! Do not hesitate on purchasing them.

Re: headers?

Just to say l was hunting some 1 7/8"-2" long headers,ended up calling Ed Quay. Very helpful, sorted out reasonable shipping to England. Headers needed a bit of work to fit,cut the flange and bit of work on the body but nothing as bad as l expected...done in a day.
BIG THANKS to ED QUAY.
