This pic was posted here on Moparts before on a car I believe a member restored or owns. My question is what is different about the 64 hardtop hemi headers compared to the sedans ?? Ron

When it rains it pours - Found another set of early 60's headers. Supposed to be "stock" Max Wedge headers.



Apparently setup to have both sides exit to the right side of the car.

Sure seem like NASCAR/USAC header for a wedge motor. I don't have my Petty catalog handy to see if they ran one like those in 1974.

When they ran wedge motors in the mid 70's they ran MW heads I believe.

You need to look for some 62/63 engine shot of NASCAR/USAC Dodges and Plymouths.

Finding someone restoring a 62/63 Mopar Nascar is going to be tough though.

The F.A.S.T. racers should read that last one which describes the Exhaust Manifolds that the Chevy and Ford camp lovingly refer to as "headers".

...A little bit of 65 Info. I hated to even bend this book open flat enough for pic's, its so pristine. But I like this thread and for what little it may help ProStDodge.

...On the topic of the Max Weg headers, I kinda lean with Autoxcuda. I have a "real faint" memory of something like those in a old parts catalog, but like I said "real faint". Seems like it was early/mid 70's. With both exits to the pass side say's "Stock Car" to me.

...I sent copies of your pic's of the Max Weg headers to a friend. I thought he might know something on them. He said he's never seen or heard of those, and thought they looked very early. Sorry, not much help.
