headers

Have a 51 chevy truck with a re-built 350 small block. Needing help in picking what headers to use?? Have what I call, ram-horn manifolds on now. I have seen in several magazines where others with similar trucks have used hooker block-huggers. Any one have a suggestion? I have been looking at Patriot tight tuck headers, has anyone used these?? Wanted to make sure they fit before I order them. Thanks.

If you have ram horns on there now and they work if I were you I would leave them on and not worry about leaky header bolts and collector gaskets. You can take the cast iron headers and grind them smoth and have then coated they will look better and disepate the heat better.
