I knew i had something in my library about those Max Wedge stock car headers.
Found a booklet by Hot Rod Magazine from 1964, titled Hot Rodding The Plymouth V8.
Scanned these pages. Hope they came out ok.

...Thank's hemi71x. Great info, for ProStDodge, and all of us that's interested. Sounds like he's got a cool piece of History. Wish they'd a rained on me.



...Fwiw,I found 1 more ancient article on the 64 Hemi headers if anyone's interested.

Those MW manifolds are incredibly rare. I did see a set for sale at the Mopar Nats in the early 90's(?) for,IIRC, $ 2200.

Never saw another set ever again.

Cool stuff.

...383man, I dont know what the difference is on the headers between the hardtop and the sedan. I'm no authority on this subject, just like it a lot, but I'm going to take a WAG and say (if there is a difference)it might have something to do with the hardtops were for Stock Car (pass exits) & the sedans for the Drags. I'll just leave it at that for now.

...The MW might not hold the prestige of the Hemi, but in this case, rarity may have some weight.

...One last article on the 64 headers if I may. This mag had a ruff life before I got it. It's collectable but not so much in this condition. Sorry about the focus (of the words) on the overall. This article has some favor towards what RO51 Hemi sad about the welds.

...four ...the headers on the left have some small welds, & the one on the right doesn't. Interesting.
