After looking into headers for a small block mopar(all along I figured I would be making my own anyway),I will start with a set of small block chevs.
So these are what I started with.
They needed stretched at the out side tubes,the centers were good.

After stretching them,I cut off the flanges,shaped the tubes to fit a set of mopar flanges,now I have them tacked into place,set to weld them up(need to get stainless wire).

That's Gangster.

Maybe less money, how about the power adder 1200, $1500.00?

More equal distribution with single in, I dunno Moparborn: you ask the Unlawful Boys what the scoop is.
