Default Re: Do you run headers ?

-----I dont know if Tom is still running them or not but back when I put the raised-port A/R head engine in Red Alert I really wanted a set of step-headers as well. A guy that used to work for Lemons Headers in Ca. and had gone out on his own got refered to me. We talked, and he said he could do the job without the car. He said "I have all the dimensions"..... Ill never forget those words!!! I got the headers and after a couple of weeks of tweeking got them on. Thank God Red wasnt a plug-eater though as the plugs were about a 4 to 5 hour job with all the expected cursing and skinned knuckles. Add into the mix the 14 to 1 pistons that required very good plug indexing. That amount of time never went down either. I would have way rather pulled the engine. He//,,,That was easy.......Bill S
