Kevin,
Those look awesome. I'm going to have to check them out. I thought you were going with the manual bell housing setup on your car? That looks like its hydraulic if it is I'm going to have to take a closer look at your car master cylinder mount etc. Headers do look like they have clearance everywhere way better than my hedmans... Bobby

It is a hydraulic clutch system using the manual clutch bellhousing for more room for the hydraulic fittings.
The dual pocket bellhousing allows for Buick and Oldsmobile applications as well as Pontiac. Last edited by formul8; 11-23-2011 at 03:19 PM. |

I went to the same Fedex drop off we always use with two packages to be sent out. Because of Turkey day it had closed early. The sign on the door said there is no pick up today. So it looks like Friday those two packages will be sent with at least two others that Ron is finishing up tomorrow.

Yep. I got a call from Ron this weekend and he told me mine would be going out today. I got the tracking number from FedEx just a few minutes ago. I have 2 sets coming.

I have never talked to him before but was impressed that he is getting them done. An LLC or corporation would have folded and set up shop again under another name. He is the first guy I have ever seen to get in over his head like that and figure a way to make good on his promise after he was flat broke. Some thought I was crazy for ordering another set but sometimes a man needs a hand and since it looked like he was really trying and with Aaron backing him, I decided to give him another chance. I'm glad I did.
He indicated that he was close to getting them all built but needs to keep the money coming in to pay for the rest of the materials he needs and shipping, which is pretty expensive. He also mentioned that he had no headers on his own car because he was deterimined to be the last in line and wouldn't build himself a set until he fulfilled his obligations to everyone. Once he catches up, I hope he raises his prices. He is way underpriced for hand built headers. If I was one of the guys who has waited years, I'd be mad too. But I have to say I am a fan of what he is doing now. He is doing all he can to make things right. Hopefully that will be pretty soon because I need those 2" primaries for my 535!

headers
hey anyone know if Ron will sell an unwelded set?? working on the Volvo project car were trying to figure out what frame rail distance we going to use. I may have to modify depending if i plan on going inside or outside the rails. Thinking outside and making custom turn outs that can have side pipes attached Like old school.

That may be correct I haven't rasied prices because of the economy for 2 years but everything I pay for keeps going up and 15-20% at that! Dumpster, alarm company, oxygen, and for sure insurance.

Yes, he is getting better all the time. I just had to do some clean up with some sand rolls on mine and they look pretty good. Of course, the openings are much bigger on the header than they are on the head, so it's just a feel good thing. It will make absolutely no difference in performance.

Not sure if this is ok with the mods, but I bought a second set to expedite my order. I have a post in the performance part FS forum. Not trying to scalp them, just want to break even.
