I was really interested in the inline, but it is a lot more expensive to build. Thhis is my hobby, but I gotta keep it somewhat reasonable. I think the hot rod sixes are really cool, though.

Rus, if you had to guess what has happened, I bet you'd be right. OF COURSE, I spent all sunday afternoon researching headers......and, OF COURSE I ordered a set.:lol: Hedman has started making a shorty header for our trucks as part of their "Street Headers" line. Part #69010. Summit doesn't even have them yet. Luckily, JEGS does, and mine will be here tomorrow!!!:metal: If I have enough time before church, I'll mock em up and post some pics. If not, I'll do it for sure on Thursday night. BTW, headers were $199 plus shipping, ended up being like $216 total. They are plain steel, but I've been doing some checking and Eastwood sells a ceramic coating tht you brush on, and it is supposed to last like twice as long, according to a guy I know who's actually used it.

Yep, the guy finally came and got the ol' sixer. FINALLY. while we were waiting on him, we worked on the core support. The first one is the old one and shows the rust, the second is the one I cleaned and painted the bottom of.

Look a few pages back. There are several. I went with all Porterbuilt stuff. If you need to see something specific, let me know, and I will try to post soon. I'm at work, and away from my computer.
