Hooker headers

yellow rose said

For what you are doing you need at least (and I mean you need to test to know but I'm betting I'm on the small side) 1.875 tubes, a 3.5 inch collector about 20 inches long and primary tubes 30-31 inches long and no longer.

If you can't get that with a fender well header don't do it. Figure out another configuration.

You're telling me things I suspected to be true, but didn't want to admit it :)
I'm really regretting NOT buying the Magnum Force front end and rack and pinion..
My wife keeps reminding me, it's to go get burgers n stuff.. But I don't like leaving 5 tenths behind with these whimpy 1 5/8 headers either.. As soon as I can come up with an alternative, I'm gonna kick a field goal with them.
This header deal has been occupying my every thought, since my last trip down the 1320. I even dream about it, then wake up feeling like I've been working my *** off.
Worst thing is, my Dart is in the body shop and I can't get to it every time I get a light bulb moment. I'll figure something out..
Thank you for your thoughts !!
