I have a couple of old core starters, but that big heavy starter is just so weak.

I bought the Hooker headers used and they were kind of banged up. The guy assured me that they were off a 69 B body, but the header tubes touched the plugs. I had to beat them in pretty good to get clearance and I still had to run a shorty Accel plug.

Now I am running the MSD fuel injection and it is really sensitive to exhaust leaks. The headers appear to be leaking around the exhaust ports when I looked at the new gaskets. When I let off the gas, I get a faint popping through the pipes as well. I feel like the exhaust leaks are the issue.



1) Cut the flanges apart to "seperate" the tubes

2) Use a OEM exhaust manifold gaskets cut to match the seperated flanges.
