Subject: Re: Exhaust headers for 69 350/350 by 69Lobster on 2011/4/21 22:29:57 Thank you very much for the fast reply. I have purchased the car back in 1990 when I was leaving in Hermosa Beach, close to where you are. I brought it to Switzerland and had it partially restored and then kept it in storage. The car is not stock, wide fenders and wheels and no louvers on the sides. Engine and transmission could be original. It is very basic. No ac, no power windows, just power steering. Did they all have it? There is a company here, that produces an electric power steering. They say, that it is better, lighter, gets harder yo turn when you drive fast like on modern cars. I will post some pictures of the car. I will try to call that McJack. I have found headers at summit and Corvette Central. The difference from my headers is, that the they go down straight and make a sharp bend under the car. My headers go down in an angle. I think, that mine are probably better for performance. Mine are just a little worn and since thea are very light, the flanges on the bottom where they mate with the intermediate pipes, are slightly bent. In addition they have the air pump manifold tubes welded on them. I was also thinking to remove and save the air system. Is it still mandatory to have it in California? Do most people remove it to gain performance? I have many questions, that come up in my mind. Is it possible, that the engine (sbc) does not have hydraulic lifters? Bye Stefano |
