Nice work Tony! Looks like decent access to plugs. Dracarys……

where are you guys getting your 2 1/4 tubing kits I buy all my tubing from StainlessHeaders.com They are in Minnesota, but not close enough for me to drive there and pick up. Just easier to have them ship to my door, and never had a problem. i didn't buy a "kit" either. just figured out roughly what I needed for bends, and bought a bunch of U bends.

X2 on stainless headers. I didnt see what i wanted as far as a kit on their site, i called there and they built a kit for me. Quick shipping and great guys to deal with

IMO SPD is the best when it comes to header materials...Quality is next to none but price reflects that.

Dumb question...other than durability and $$$ is there any difference between stainless and mild steel ??? Oh and i have some A body big block headers for sale in the race parts section Stainless holds heat in the exhaust, which is energy, aiding in better scavenging without having to do what i do. Wrap them, since i build my own out of m. s. Also no rust buildup inside the tubes. That may cause some power loss at some point?

Driver side tacked , the shorted tube ended up 18 , but the collector adds 2” (merge) so it’s within 6” of what it was supposed to be . I got the cyl in order to fire in a circle also , that helped because it added a few inches to #3

Regular steel, coated, wrapped, or stainless, NONE of that stuff makes any difference in HP. Wrapped will keep heat down in the engine compartment, but it does't help make power.

That collector exit on the side of the car will look wicked. Maybe blow the hat off a bystander... LOL they will be trimmed way back. maybe just stick out 1" or so past the fender. We are not allowed bullhorns in Ultra street BUT whats going on inside the fender..... Really it wont be much, but its all i could get in the little real estate there is.
