  • Headers

    A new page entry has been added:

    [drupal=148]Headers[/drupal]

    Introduction

    I have to start this off with a warning. There are a LOT of calculations and theories when it comes to headers. From the way it has been discussed on various forums lately it is obvious how little they are understood. The links below will be great resources, so read this to get an overview I guess, then tackle the real IN DEPTH theory.

      Nowadays, I think he is near impossible to get ahold of, and probably isn't making them anyway. What engine are you wanting headers for?

                  more help to build a header

                  I would also suggest getting a headers by ed.com catalog and cassette tape
                  if you really want to learn how to do it right. Am I correct in assuming there were different exhaust patterns for the cylinder heads. Guys what are the differences?
                  Also, there is no room in the fieros or the Wbodies to do a correct header.
                  The header would have to be a primary length of 34" equal length with a tube
                  error of 2" or so. Also, headers by ed sells primary flanges so that you can break the header down into 2/3 piece, possibly making it easier.
