a little more on the passenger side header











Collector will be about like this..

Yummy <3 wish I lived closer, would love to hang and build shit.

Jake doesn't fuck around.

[jakeb]

Drivers side header is a bit more work...but making progress none the less. It is a puzzle....that I sure enjoy solving.

[LJ851]

Nice work !

Is it just me or are your headers looking better every time you make a set?

[BamaE30]

Nice work Jake as always.

[kalib0y]

nice work on the headers. I like how you dont have the steering shaft going right through

[jakeb]

Thanks...I really didn't want to have the steering going through the headers. Things are still tight but I am liking this routing.

With these I was actually able to install the header from the top. Not sure how that will be once all the runners are on but...we will see.

Started on one runner...


It's hard to get a picture of how it routes...


Where the collector will go..


From farther away


Another angle


Collector could still go a couple different ways....

[kalib0y]

I will be taking it all apart very soon to do some upgrades, would you be open to selling me some of your components?

Sure thing, PM sent

[jakeb]

Still need to test this runner in the car but it should fit without any problem.







My idea for cylinder 3


Cylinder 1 would then tuck under #7 runner. Will find out tomorrow afternoon.

Glad I could help take your mind off work :)


Dropped the wheels off to get mounted up...
Snapped a pic of the tires as they were sitting out.



These shows up to be donors for the flares



Fitment of the two runners


Third runner in progress....still need to test on the car.
