Pipes sit 1" under oil pan.


Collector 1.5" under frame rail. And remember that with the supplied V-band there is no collector flange.

I just got my set in the mail today. Very good quality. The dogleg port couldnt be better. Super smooth transition into the pipes.   They also have great clearance for bolting up to the heads. I can’t wait to get my car out of storage and get my new stroker motor hooked up to these.   Big thanks to Nick for supporting AMC with a new great product!!!!!

Hope they develop the small car sets soon. I love to put a set on my 67 Rogue. Just curious on how much you paid for a set.

Just bringing this back to the top guys. Whatever you guys could do to get the word out through other forms of social media would be greatly appreciated. We're fairly certain that there's many hardcore AMC enthusiasts that still aren't aware of these new header systems. Thanks.

Hi Nick,

Any plans to tweak the design to work with non-stock oil pans? Based on feedback from Jan on the 1 7/8" primary version, there's only about 1/4" clearance between the #6 pipe and the stock pan, so expect clearance may be an issue for those running Milodon, Canton, Armando or Aviaid road-race style pans.

Not sure if the smaller 1 3/4" pipes would gain enough room for road-race style wide-sump pans?

Thanks,RD

RD,

It's hard to be everything for everybody. I don't believe the headers will be a problem for drag race style deep pans. I will say this, given the opportunity we won't rule out making adjustments if someone local to us was able to supply a vehicle with a road race style pan bolted up. It's also important to note that as good as our headers are, making a clearance adjustment to your existing pans, as long as it isn't too egregious, is time well spent. We do have a full refund policy if our headers don't work. We do not force anyone to keep our headers if they won't work with you application.
