Re: Big Block Headers

I am useing FlowTech Full-Length Headers with my 454BB and as you can see from the picture they do sit low just for now I have a set of summit Turbo mufflers so it can be driven, I will later be changing the Exhaust Systems.Heres a picture so you can see for yourself its not a good one but you can tell.. My drop is 2.5inch Spindles with 2inch Springs up front and 4inch drop Springs out back.... and forgot to mention I had no clearence problems with the frame rail, transmission crossmember or anything...

Re: Big Block Headers

Are the 2455s round or square exhaust port, my heads have the round port?Would they still work with a sq port and sq gasket? Thanks Brian

Re: Big Block Headers

The tubes are round but the flange is a bit squared. not to much, it still has some roundness.

Re: Big Block Headers

Thanks for posting the pics Ripdog. Since I'll be running these on my 4x4 with a lift, the drop below isn't a huge issue provided they clear my front driveshaft. The passenger side on the Hedman's I was running before hung waaaayyyy low. Looks like it's time to order a set of 2455's.


EDIT: I musta been really tired when I posted this...it was 1bagged67 that posted the pics. Thanks man.

Re: Big Block Headers

My 67 Stepside is running a Gen VI tall deck big block with a 4 in drop in front and 6 in in the rear. Sanderson BB2 headers ($325.00 if you don't have them ceramic coated) fit just fine. They do not interfere with the starter or the frame on either side but , as you can see from the photo, they did make me relocate the oil filter.

Fitz do you have any pictures of them from the side looking under the truck to see how they look from the side do they hang below the frame or not? if so how much, I might be lookinf for a new set of headers in the near future and as for Sanderson well they make good headers and are close by
