Hi guys, I had asked about headers for my sb C-10 a few months ago. I went with the Hedman 69026 ceramic... they fit perfectly. Plenty of room and fit around mt clutch linkage perfectly.
Its in the shop now for 4 mos and since the front clip was off I did the headers and motormounts whilst I could get in there. The bed and cab are done, waiting on the doors and front clip to paint. It made me a little misty and goosebumpidy when I saw the paint for the first time. OMG wow. I put a fuel cell where tire used to go and a trap door in the bed, no more gas in the cab or running down the side, all gone.
Have a great day and thanks to all that answered my oddball questions, but, the headers awww the headers. makes engine look so much better now.
Thanks Mike
