Charlie,

I have an extra set of Sanderson 1 1/2" plain steel headers.  If they are what you are looking for, I would be happy to send them to Ted.  These are the same kind I use on the race truck except we use ceramic coating.  I doubt if these would work well on larger cu. in. engines, but the little 258" Y doesn't seem to mind.  Jerry C has been trying to get me to change them for some time with no success (he especially hates the collectors), (what collectors?Tongue).

Charlie,

I think those will be perfect. The design is very similar.

Charlie.  If you can send the 1½” tube headers, I’ll include them on the test.  Looks like testing both open and with headpipes would be the plan for those particular headers.  2½” headpipes would be the choice at this point.

Here’s a picture of the two tube Reds/Hedman headers that were initially being used on the 312 dyno engine.  These were being used with 4 foot long 2” diameter lead pipes with no mufflers.

 

And here’s a picture of the headers that were worth an additional 22 horsepower with mufflers in place over the ones pictured above.

This is the short truck headers from Reds headers. 1 1/2" tubes with crimped bends. My truck is gonna be a cruiser so these should be fine. Did not like the stock manifolds and did not have the money for ramshorn manifolds.

So, Kenny, you going to be using them any time soon? You're pretty close to Ted, right? Make it a day trip, throw some headers on the dyno, and be home soon after dark.BigGrin

I am curious what the price difference would have been between john,s rams horn headers and these? Thanks.
