Got the drawing - first sketch - of the headers. I decided I wanted custom built rather than the standard "Sanderson" Lakester header. And built from food grade polished stainless steel. What do you guys think?

I like it Greg.

I like the "away" and "down" bends.
How long of a wait to have the headers custom made?

Do the arrows help you remember which way the exhaust flows ?

I think you got more time in the drawing than what it will take to make.

Looks good !!

They'll do them right there at the shop. We'll, of course, wait til the motor is back in the chassis etc.

Funny Mark! But I think you're right. I was at SAR today - will post pics in a minute.... Told them "I do not want headers that look like they belong on a bucket T"! They understood what I was saying. Now -- They'll have to find the tapered tube! That might take some doing.
