started building headers ,started with a merge collector kit .
I am haveing flanges lazer cut pick them up thursday and I have a whole pile of U and J bends.
Might build 2 sets  .tried the pipe max program and it came out with some big headers.
 Hope it works or I will be building some smaller tubed headers.
2-1/8 to 2-1/4 to 2-3/8  stepped .collector reduces to 3-1/2
Going to exit out the fender  in front of the door

Well I milled .260 off the back of the timing cover for the front motor plate
I also had to chuck the convertor in the lathe and cut down the mounting lugs to fit in the reactor flex plate.
