In addition he then bends the stuff for the 2" primary headers. Once he has enough tubing bent he begins individual assembly on one set at a time.

I put him behind schedule because I pushed him to finish the designs on not only the 1st gen firebirds like yours, but also the 2" headers for that car, the 2" headers for 70-81 birds & 68-73 A bodies, as well as turbo headers. So I basically put him about 5-6 weeks behind. It was difficult for him because it pushed orders behind and meant no new $ flowing in for a while, but I am working on a deal to see if his headers might become available through another Pontiac source and having the maximum # of designs available seemed to be the best course.

As part of that push, when Ron built Roger Bolligers 2" set recently for his race trans am, we found out last minute that Roger's new engine was being built with a 4/7 cam swap. That necessitated going back to the drawing board for that specific set of headers and the tube order of the primaries needed to be switched around. When you do that you are basically building a custom set, and it took him a week.

So I apologize, but your headers ARE being worked on now. I just cant give you an exact date yet.

Aron same with me!! Ron had my headers in the making when he found out i have a 4/7 swap as wel . havend heard from him sins.. any update!..

David.....I dont have specifics yet. I have been so busy I think I've spoken with Ron 3 times in the last month. I do know he is making progress, but I really dont know who's on first and who's on 2nd so speak. Yours are 1st gen bird design, and I know the design part is done as you've seen.

lfdsteve.....thanks very much for the support. I'm sure Ron will appreciate it. He really puts everything he can into making them.
