Thank you!

Looking to put Pontiac to the front!

Had to go put the distributor in front with the BOP front mount distributor. What a nice piece that is.

Around the first of the year it's getting some stainless 2-1/4" to 2-3/8" header by Ron Rhodes!

Also, I called Dale Cubic and got on his list for a pair of dominators.

I was getting ready to ask you how you we're packaging 2-1/4" on the 2 center ports and then I remembered it's a DRCE BBC head! Have you looked at 2-1/4" to 2-3/8" to 2-1/2"? I'm sure it will do well, you should pick up a ton.

Has any packaged anything larger than 2-1/8" on a head with the traditional Pontiac exh port outlet?

Rodney had some big primaries on the old purple car when we ran nitrous. I think they were either 2.375" or 2.5", I can't remember. I helped build them. They were a pain in the butt to build, but surprisingly, they were his "go to" headers on the dyno for the bigger engines...they made more power than anything else we ever tried, if I remember correctly. It seems downright silly, but it was true.

I have a picture somewhere of the big nitrous engine on the dyno with them.

Travis,

Thanks for the note. The results don't seem silly to me. Did they perform well on the track or could you package them in the car? Do you know if they were' packaged at the head at 2.375" or where the stubbed at something smaller and then stepped up to bigger pipe? From what I can tell, 2.125 is as big as you can go with flatting the pipes on the center ports and spreading bolts. Just wondered what others have done.

I'd be interested in seeing the picture if it's no trouble.

Thanks again,

Aaron

We're running 2.5" at the head and even double walled. It's done with an adapter plate bolted to the head with counter sunk bolts then you relocate the header bolts where you want on the adapter plate. I have three different cars with the adapter plates and it makes sealing them up and removal easy.
