Buy the Spitfire headers and be done. Avoid the nonsense of modifying the stainless block huggers. The initial price difference is going to be be in negative territory really fast if you have someone else modify them to fit.

If your headers are going to be temporary until your next motor is done, but a set of cheap headers with the tubes already formed and in place. Cut off what you don't need and use the leftover somewhere else on the headers.

What’s wrong with the design? They fit early a-bodies and used to be cheap. I think the passenger side tubes aren’t paired correctly though.

The guy that makes them for Layson’s absolutely HATES making them. Same guy makes the Schumacher headers as well as many other brand-x headers.

Nope, just black paint.

Wow, the Layson’s headers are $629 now!

On my 66 Barracuda, I had to narrow the stock gas tank to make room for the exhaust.

I had a narrowed stock tank with the pipes through the springs. It was low and the springs would hit the pipes. My future thought is eliminate the spare tire well and use a 62-65 Fairlane tank. I'm not a fan of fuel cells in the trunk.

A competent exhaust shop should have been able to do your exhaust. I am surprised you didn't use 340 HP manifolds on your car as they would flow a lot better than the 273 manifolds. Maybe Eberg or Yakima would have more experienced shops.

They are being produced near me in the Seattle area. Laysons did not buy the rights from Harold, they had another shop build a fixture off of a set of Spitfire headers.

Might be easier to take to a competent local shop and have them bend up a custom exhaust.

Maddog headers are pretty nice. I have a set on my FE powered 64 Fairlane, they fit good, have 3/8" flanges and the welds are nice. I would give his Mopar headers a try.

There's a guy in the Tacoma area that has built many custom headers. PM me if you need his contact info.

Layson's is having these headers made locally in the Seattle area. They are direct copies of Spitfires that Layson's had a jig made from a few years ago. It costs a lot of money to prototype and go into production on a set of headers that you may only sell 100 sets of. I have talked at length...

Not sure what style of exhaust you are looking for, stock or performance. These guys have stock style. http://www.accurateltd.com/

I believe they are out of production on that manifold. I would go about it the old fashioned way...call them.

Wait for the Spring thaw and take it to a performance oriented exhaust shop. The tail pipe going into the muffler seems like a big time restriction. It should have been expanded, slipped over the muffler and welded.

I was completely overwhelmed! Too much to see in one day. I set some front suspension items to the side. Going to get a slant 6 dist. for your HEI conversion. I also spied a box with some goodies already pulled for you. Ray is a cool guy with a warehouse full of great car parts.

Welcome to the Great Northwest! I am going to one of your recommendations today...Old Car Parts Northwest.

Instead of spending the $$$ on a patent, he needs to give my $$$ back.

I know for a fact that Harold did not make headers for Layson. Layson's had a header manufacturer local to me copy a set of Spitfires and stopped payment upon delivery. I have seen the fixtures and one reference set. If there is enough interest, I can get them made.

He got me too! Ordered them in August, after a couple weeks I called him and he said they box was damaged in shipping. Many unanswered phone calls later...I decided to file a postal fraud investigation on him. We'll see how it comes out.
