Re: Largest tube Headers? The only 1's I know of are the QTP's formaly known as the Grots which measure 1 7/8ths. The dynatechs as mentioned above are stepped headers. They go from 1 3/4's to 1 7/8ths. Both great headers, just the dynatechs are suppose to be a major PITA to have the collector seal to the 4 tubes.
Re: Largest tube Headers? Dynatech has some 1 7/8 headers that are really nice. They are good units and you never hear squa about them on the net.
Look through www.jegs.com for them.

Re: Largest tube Headers? For a large displacement engine I'd recommend the 1 7/8" headers from QTP (used to be made by Roger G.) They come with a nice 3" into 4" Y-pipe I believe (at least the 1 3/4" ones do.)
