I have one guy that asked to see the oval collectors. So tomorrow I'll post some pics of them on the test frame to show the installed height.

You can get an idea of how much room they give by the above pic in the box even through the bubble wrap.

gearbanger & 67 Lamnas
I have 3 different things I take into account on my lists & Im still surfing through all the post of all the threads on all the boards which takes hours to say the least. So its a rough draft until I start the header.

You cant see contos20's headers until I get the pics from the shop camera but they are the first ones that I just modified the jig. So this will speed things up a little because that header fits both 68'-72' A-body's & 2nd gen birds. Both O & D-port sets because I took the time to do what I was told couldn't be done without a total new pattern 5yrs ago.

I only have 2-3 64'-67' A-body left & its easier to work on the other at this moment with the way Im set up. Plus I can get the most covered with this set because of the two body's it fits. I think things are going to speed up a little now in part from the changes I made to the jigs because almost all the bends & parts are interchangeable between the two body's. also because the newest welder I have is also willing to help in the build process.

Until now the guy thats been helping is real slow on the build & I still need to help at most things. So I may as well do it all myself it seems. My good friend that helped me for two days was just as fast as me & I only had to show him once. He has a job though or that would be the ticket.
