Jim, IMO I think you got the best deal as this box is big (I don't remember the weight on mine exactly) but will likely cost more than $60.00 to ship back east without all the hassle of getting 10 people etc.

We now include the collector extention with flanges. To those that purchased headers and would like the flanges and extentions call the tech line @ 800-416-8628 between 8am to 5 pm PST.

As to the O2 sensor bungs, we made a call if we should weld in the bungs. We were concerned as to where they would need to be welded in or if they should be welded in at all (carb applications).

All PM's have been sent out. as soon as i get all the addresses, get quotes and collect the money, theyll be ready to ship. im a firefighter so im gone 24hrs at a time (48-72 if i have a backfill) so if i dont get back to you right away thats most likely the reason.

right now the list of 10 is as follows; bczee, flywheel, subtlez28, 72chevy72, wingman, samdogmx, touronhold72, 70 chevelle, crzyfast and myself

btw, its good to see that edelbrock is standing behind their product.

it looks like all the headers are in stock and will be picked up this week. if all goes as planned they should be shipping by the beginning of next week.

thanks, Tim

Are the flanges free or do I have to pay for them? I bought them through summit but in my opinion since I already paid full price they should be free!?

Thanks for your input.

EdelExh - where is the best place to add the bung for the O2 sensor.. ?. on the 3" Collector or how will it work aft and on the bell flange / collector ?

Also.. does Edelbrock ship the Bell Flange collector in 3" to 2 1/2" reducers (as what I received was the 3" only).

Anyone that has completed there's.. where did you weld in your O2 Bung ?

Hope to do mine in a two weeks.

Tim thanks again!

Put mine on over the weekend. Look Great! Need to remove starter, but bolt starter back in before bolting up headers...no big deal.

Can Anyone comment on bczee's questions:

"EdelExh - where is the best place to add the bung for the O2 sensor.. ?. on the 3" Collector or how will it work aft and on the bell flange / collector ?

Also.. does Edelbrock ship the Bell Flange collector in 3" to 2 1/2" reducers (as what I received was the 3" only).

About ready to fire mine up for the first time, above answers would help!!

Thanks
Rick

I put my O2 bungs about 6 inches aft of the collectors.
