it sounded like the collectors had a bunch of Ping-Pong balls in there at idle. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

WAY COOL.

Re: M/T Super Scavenger headers
 

I had a set built over the winter for a big block Chevelle. If anyone is interested PM me and I will try to dig up his contact info.

Re: M/T Super Scavenger headers
 

There's a set for a Chevelle on ebay right now for $1200.

Re: M/T Super Scavenger headers
 

I've been looking for a set of these for my 1969 Z/28 and haven't had any luck, so I ended up building my own. Quite an interesting experiment. Just fired it up a few weeks ago and haven't had a chance to shake down the car yet (too busy working).

They sound good with the 302 but are not as loud as I was hoping for at idle. FYI - I kept the stock chambered exhaust system so far but may eliminate the chambered sections behind the rear diff as my next experiment.

Here's some pics of my adventure... Charlie

Re: M/T Super Scavenger headers
 

Tom... what car is going to end up with the ZL1 (or is it in something already)?

Pretty cool piece of garage art! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: M/T Super Scavenger headers
 

super nice fit on those fabbed headers....what brand did you start with?


John, the ZL 1 is in Canada....I sold it a few years ago to be put in some kind of super rare 69 Camaro. In those pics are actually 2 engines. My former Zl 1 &amp; an ultra rare Can_Am that the shop built for a customer to place in an old Yenko car.
