With all the work involved, I would personally try to make a tubular header, Mine went fairly easy once I figured out the best route. I have a ton of photos during the process I could post to help give ideas to make yours easier.

Same car same engine..... Copy cat!!!

I thought of doing this BEFORE I saw your car. I was kinda disapointed when I seen someone beat me to the punch. Oh well, my project isnt coming along as fast as I like. Ive been working out of state, so I dont have much time to work on it.

Yeah, Ive been waiting on the piping. Once I get that, I think I can figure things out better. Might not be as bad as I think.

Just got a new digital camera today. I will try to post some pics, if I can figure it out!

Well, to date I have had no heat problems. Things do not really get that hot. I have cruised on the freeway for 2 hours at 80 mph already with no problems. I run all accessories in the stock locations. I do not run the A/C pump because I do not have the A/C on the car functional yet. But it will fit too.

All that is done to my motor that HAS to be done for big boost and massive power is:

-Forged pistons
-Billet rods
-Stainless valves
-Good valvesprings
-Head studs
-Main studs
-MLS head gaskets
-A1000 fuel pump and regulator
-Get the motor tuned by a pro, or learn yourself. I tuned my entire setup to well over 800 rwhp on 93 octane myself. So it not impossible, just do it carefully.

That is it. Do that and you can have a 1000 hp engine.
