When it came to finding some headers, the only source I could find for my heads in the DSE subframe was Lemons. I wasn't too impressed with the price being they're unequal length and I thought they still hung a little low. Holley has a Ebay store where they sell returns for pennies on the dollar, I bought a set of returned Hooker BBC headers for a stock Camaro for about $100 and they actually fit pretty good, they just hung below the subframe about a inch and a half. A header build kit is pretty pricey too so it was way cheaper to buy these and cut them up. I bought about a dozen 180 bends, some v-bands, O2 bungs and went to work. They turned out pretty good, I was able to keep them close to equal length and they're tucked up above the frame. I can even take them in and out from below with ease. I'll send them out for coating later on.
Nice job they look great. After they're coated they'll look better then store bought!
Thanks! Sometimes it doesn't seem like building things myself is worth it, but when it turns out nice, it's totally worth it. I built that drivers side header 3 times before I had it the way I wanted it.
