Well, here are the headers. They are mild steel but they will be coated inside and out. These headers were fabbed by Gary Cook at Performance Fabrication & Engineering in Mt.Clemens MI.















I would love to have this on the engine dyno at W2W before the end of the year. All I really still need is a camshaft and my head gaskets from Cometic and they should be at my door step on Monday so all that really leaves is a camshaft.

Tom, you may want to take the pics and convert them to links. They don't show up because cardomain doesn't allow direct linking.

Thanks!

btw: We are going to try the poly chain GT2 kevlar belt on Chris' car. I never would have thought it would work being so much smaller than the rubber belt. Is that also the same belt Kurgen runs?
