Scott,

Did he mention how the steering shaft fit up with those pipes? I had Dan Lemons build me a set for my 540 4-speed ragtop, that guy can build pipes, absolutly beautiful work. I wonder what they cost, perhaps a call to Dan for more info on them.

Thanks Rich

I agree!!!
A good brand of headers that work well for the LSx based engines.:thumbsup:

awesome build :thumbsup:

Very cool!!:cool:

that doesnt look mig welded... is that some sort of mig "brazing" no splatter and golden shine to weld??? perhaps i just need to get my eyes checked..

Yep, now we have Lemon, Stainless Works, and ATS that we know work well...it's nice when good parts are available! :thumbsup:

The shock crossmember is mig welded, everything else is tig welded with sil bronze

Have not been on much.....click "new posts" and see my old girl getting the white glove treatment!

It's great to see the car move along. Kurt your work is outstanding...:thumbsup: Scott PLEASE keep the pics coming...I can't wait to see it finished!

Couple pictures of the day it got picked up:

Sure thing, you know me. :D

Be sure to show the pics to your son, too. :)

Just a question about the silicon bronze. I've seen this used before and have done a little research. Are you just using this on the parts that you don't deem structural? It sure makes pretty looking welds. I thought I had read somewhere that it makes a weaker weld and shouldn't be used on structural joints.

I'm just curious - trying to learn.

I like the clearance modifications for the exhaust. You can tell that you've been down that road before with a Camaro. It's always nice to have those previous experiences to draw on.

Killer car nice:yes: :yes: :yes:

Color is going on... :cheers:

Correct. Non structural- sheetmetal. Like you would not want to use it for welding the subframe to the subframe conectors or welding together a roll cage

Progress! :woot: Looks great Kurt!!

I've heard a lot of good things about those Lemon's Headers.
What are your opinions? They look like they fit awesome.
THANKS!!:thumbsup:

They do look having a great fit!! Why they dont make those in stainless? I would take a set asap :yes:

Well I will say this, they fit awesome, look awesome, quality is awesome, they tuck up nice and dont hardly hang down below the frame, easy access to the plugs, nice beefy flanges.... plus Dan is great to work with:thumbsup:

Nice work Kurt...Car look fantastic!:thumbsup:

Closer... :D

Yes :thumbsup: :cheers:

Looks good. Will it be at the Dells?

What was wrong with the quarters:question:

One side had a little rust around the wheel opening but the other side had a crease/dent from someone running into it I would guess. When the owner purchased the car it came with one NOS quarter and I was able to locate another for the other side

No, it will be in New York by then.

Hey how you comin on that truck you got from Wegner?

Oh Yeah!!! :thumbsup:

I'm running a little behind, I started another 69 camaro and were doing a complete paint on a 68 camaro, and a full alterktion kit on a 69 superbee so I probably wont be getting to it anytime soon. I still have a ton of stuff to do on the cuda, winters sure are busy!!!!

Just 110% what i am looking for!!! :hail: Can you ask Dan if they can made those in stainless ??

I found this at lemons web site :

" Spark plug wiring:
For all of our Big Block and LS headers we recommend a 45 degree wiring boot and for all of our Small Block headers we recommend a 90 degree wiring boot."

But based on pictures it look like the stock boots would clear ? Can you double check this for me ? If they work i place my order right in.

I just took another look and its a straight shot. Looks like a straight boot would have plenty of clearance to me

Black!! Love it...:thumbsup:

Kurt, Scott told me your attention to detail is top shelf and it shows...:hail:




That crease happened to the original owner, a driver was not paying attention and tapped him on the backside.

How much body work will you have to do?:yes: :yes:

Car is looking KILLER!!!:thumbsup:
Keep up the great work and keep us posted!!!

It seems i finally found my headers. Not in stainless but these have been best i have seen so far. Thanks Kurt for the pics and info!!

Any updates?
