What kind of headers are you using on your motor

Just wanted to see what kind of headers you guys were using on your motors. I am thinking to put some hugger headers on the 350 that I am going to swap into the Brown Hornet. Thanks in advance. Post some pics so we can all gloat.........

Re: What kind of headers are you using on your motor

I currently have Hedman on one small block, Flowtec on the other, and Hedman on the big block. The SB hedmans are close to the shacles, the BB's are close to the front shaft. The Flowtec clear well, but are hard to keep a couple plug wires off 'em. I had a set of the SB Hookers too that cleared well, but they required 7 angle boots and 1 straight boot to keep from burning any of them.

No pics, but they are just plain ones.

Oh, I have a pic of the Hookers on my old Blazer. I painted them high-temp silver.



This is the only good thing about a body lift. You can see the Chevy orange and the headers, lol.

I don't remember. I think the previous owner had 2 installed, so I did the same when I put that 400 in. Figured it couldn't hurt.

Re: What kind of headers are you using on your motor

Edelbrock SMOG legal headers for here in CA. I wouldn't install them personally but the PO had them on and i didn't want to mess with taking them off unless i could get factory manifolds. The way edelbrock routed the primaries is stupid. You literally cant change the plugs without breaking the plug in half! Installing them isn't as bad but getting them out is a major PAIN! Its a hint something is wrong when the manufacturer supplies you with thermal sleeves for some of the plug wires.

Wysco stainless longtubes. 1 5/8" primaries and 3" collectors, super thick flanges and great ground clearance. Best part is they were only like $240.
