Looks like you guys are going to make a bunch of AMC'ERS happy. Good luck and hope you sell a lot of headers.

KingsX, It was great talking to you as well and thank you for jumping on board and ordering a system. We look forward to getting them in your hands and bolted up to that Javelin.

I saw the video and have seen there work first hand....Very impressive to say the least...I will be waiting for the small car version for the altered wheelbase and when the Concord gets the 401......This might sound like a ridiculous question but my son wanted to know if they would be offered in kit form ...being he`s a welder

Without question we'd be happy to provide all the parts in kit form to build a custom set of headers. We're just a phone call away guys. Thanks.

Headers just arrived to the shop. Dogleg port, 1 7/8 with 3" collector. Will test fit on the stock 390, after that send for dyno with the stroker 427.
I'll post pics for as soon we are done.

Pics from todays installation. (Survivor AMX 1969)
Theses headers are intended for a 427 stroker engine, did this to test fit and completion of exhaust system before shipping headers to be dynoed with stroker engine.
It took less then 1 hour to swap to headers, only thing needed to be removed is the clutch linkage. Great fit.

Thanks for posting pictures. They hang a bit low .. but maybe a bit less than others? If possible, could you measure distance from top of collector tube to floor pan or bottom of primary tubes to frame rail or to engine cross member?

Also, one pipe looks a bit close to the sump on the pan. Could you measure from bottom of sump up to the tube or clearance between sump and tube? I have an Armando road race pan that is deeper than stock but 12" wide and just barely clears one pipe on Hooker 7103s.

Thanks,RD

Is it just me or do they seem to hang just as low as other headers. Saw the video on facebook also. Nice but..............https://www.facebook.com/jan.phersson/videos/2318676554824569/

The only headers that may have more ground clearance would be the Dougs D-103, however those are only 1 3/4 and these are 1 7/8. The Javelin/AMX has only so much room under the floor where the collector sits. Based on what I can see these are as much ground clearance that could be expected with a 1 7/8 long tube header.
Nicely done.
