Found Some Headers

Well I don't have my V6 bird anymore, but when I did I remember having a lot of trouble finding headers for it. So anyway, I found these on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1868197272 hope this helps someone.

Is it just me, or do those headers look super long? Plus, the whole deal about the "lowest pipe on the lowest header"... even if the pipe is as he says it is (it's Really out of alignment with the other pipes as far as bolting all three onto one head)-- it looks like that pipe comes off another pipe. I know the original Hedman headers had all three pipes going into the collector. Weird.

Hey could these be S10 Blazer headers?

That new 2.8 block he is selling for 200 is not a bad price. wonder what it cost new or what a 3.4 block is new from GM.

it's just the rust blendng together on the different pipes. talk about potential exhaust leak

that design has been around for a long time. it works well too. monza headers had a two peice design on one side and a three piece on the other side. never had any problems with exhaust leaks. and tomp, those are full length headers, not shorties like what CHC was making.
