That is a nice looking car!! I get the temper, I call it mission creep. I know a guy that makes custom stainless headers if you ever wanted to spend the money. It sure wasn’t cheap, but It’s the best part of my engine. But I have plenty of room in my cuda. He has made headers for lots of original mopar cars that I thought weren’t possible. His headers are a work of art.
Maybe a getting a little off topic but Jon Kasse says it is very important to use stainless headers or headers that are well coated inside the pipes.
Why? He says rust from the pipes get sucked back into the engine. He said sometimes as far back as the carburetor.
Probably because of all the pulsing going on. There's been rusty exhaust on most of the cars forever and ever. Suppose the greater the investment in the engine the more a person would want to protect the investment.
