Doug's Headers - Where to buy?
 

I have just about decided to go with Doug's Headers for my TA.

Where is the best place to purchase them? Should I buy them already coated, or should I have them coated by someone else?

Thanks, Dave

Get the coated headers from Doug. You won't regret it. Get the headers from Jeg's or Summit. They have the best prices that I've seen.

Pacific Performance Racing in San Pedro, CA stocks them - 310-832-4596Performance Years also stocks them.

jeffhhs76,
I didn't realize that summit or Jegs carried them. I guess I should have checked. I thought they were more of a specialty item/brand.

Ron,
I looked at PY, but the online catalog didn't indicate that there headers were Dougs. I will check again.

Thanks.

Look at the Pypes Section.

Hey Ron....

Thanks for turning me on to Pacific Performance!! I never even knew they existed!! Nice!!

Vtxman .... Pacific performance has the headers you need for a few bucks less than Jegs/Summit. I don't know the shipping deal at Pacific Performance but Jegs is free so you'll have to see for yourself how it shakes out....

Have fun!!!

Jeff

Glad to be of help. Doug's are a great set of headers.

They're the best!!...Now if you could only help me with my rag joint problem. How can I get a hold of an "original" style power steering rag joint that doesn't have the looooong casing pins that are ramming up against the front header tube in my 67' with E-heads????

Don't mean to change the topic, just looking for an answer...

Jeff

Have you looked on some of the Chebby web sites?? Should be the same rag joint.

Try Lee Manufacturing. They might have them or know who does.

Will do...Thanks Ron

I bought mine uncoated from Classic Industries. The standard paint/coating has been good for 2 years. I am going to take them over to HPC this winter and have them coated.

Isnt the advantage of buying new headers already coated,that they are done inside and out?
Most headers rot from the inside.

Some guys want to make sure the headers fit before spending the money to have them coated. Some guys want to add additional options to their headers such header evac tubes, O2 sensors, EGT sensors,etc.

Got mine coated from Butler.

summit carries them, but they aren't in the catalogue. they are however on their website. they also have a policy about beating the lowest price available, you just have to call them and be able to prove the price you want them to beat i.e. another website etc. i had them look up another website while i was on the phone with them. give them a call. 800.230.3030.

Do Doug's Headers sometimes not fit?

I have heard of a few cases....but early on I do know that some people did not want to take the chance of them not fitting so they purchased them uncoated and trial fitted them before they had them coated.

Unfortunately Doug's stopped offering the standard coat a year or two ago. You now have only the raw or ceramic coated options.

When I bought mine I had 15% off with Classic and that was for uncoated headers only. I payed around 400 for them. Couldn't pass that up.
I have since added O2 sensors and evacs.
