Got my long tube headers... pics I like them!
I measured everything and here is what I got:
- 3" collectors
- .062" - .065" thick piping size. This is 16 gauge
- 3/8" thick flanges
- Roughly 1.700" - 1.712" tube port size. Close enough to 1 3/4"
- All welds look nice
- Polish job is real nice

Stock 3.23's. Only thing I had was a lid. It was tapping the rev-limiter on the shifts and I was on regular radials or I think with just those two things addressed I could have gotten a solid 13.1 or 13.0. That was leaving about 2500 RPM's since the rear brakes wouldn't hold and the tires were starting to slip some. With DR's I know I could have knocked a little more off.
Word of Advise!!!!! IF,, those are the Ebay headers!!!!!! Speaking from Experience!!!!
Notch your K-member,, ON BOTH Sides..or you'll regret it, even after installing new poly motor mounts. The vibration from them rubbing SUCKED.
I ended up having to taking them back off "Sawz all" then re-install. But, for the $$$ saved, they're still worth it....
Sorry, no photos.

Not on yet. Still need to get the exhaust pieces but have the extensions and block-offs.
They are stainless and can be polished again. They will turn blue or black but who cares. I don't really pop the hood to look at my headers.

They're going to turn golden brown, had a set on my old SS.
