These are in chrome, but you get the idea.

Is the set you have pictured about $340 after taking the discount? I have this thin little wallet and thick stack of bills.. but if I read correctly.. you have at least one set in chrome that should fit my 68 c-20 small block at that price -- which I would rather throw at a set of quality parts than save the $100 or so to get a set of Hookers that I'll have to hammer to fit.

Would be a fine use for my "stimulus" money if I did the math right.

Re: Big savings on Doug Thorley headers/exhaust!!!

Since I hear about a lot of folks running Chevelle BBC headers, what do you have for those in a shorter length? Or even a 73-87 BBC truck header?

You were pretty close on your estimate. It's about $353 + shipping. LMK

How does the chrome hold up on headers??? Is the warranty the same for chrome as it is for ceramic coated?. They look nice!

No, not really. they will require modification and the instructions are very detailed on how to do so.

The chrome we use is considered an industrial coating. It is "high nickel" and is applied more for substrate protection vs. looks. Same warranty applies to chrome, limited lifetime.

Shameless bump.

Just a reminder that the sale continues (see post #1). And this offer is for our entire product line.

Re: Big savings on Doug Thorley headers/exhaust!!!

Jamie is right about the chrome. It will turn color and rust over time. I had two sets and they were priceless. Never had a leak and that was with 2 broken studs. Outstanding Byson(?) gaskets.

Re: Big savings on Doug Thorley headers/exhaust!!!

Folks these headers are awesome! The fit is great and the quality is unbelievable. Here's a few quick snapshots. I want to confirm with Jamie before I post all. The beauty of the pictures is what you don't see as well as what you do, , .

Jamie - please give me a call, I PM'd you my phone number.

Believe it or not, it's bare metal that has been polished. Jamie said they do this in preparation to ceramic coating.

Wow! Since they are bare metal are you going to seal them with anything to keep them from rusting?

This set is a prototype. Once the final design is completed, they will be ceramic coated.
