Default 2" or bigger headers for 64-67 a body?

Anybody running 2" or bigger primaries on a round port in a 64-67 gto/tempest/le mans? I was putzing around last night thinking of ways to make my car a better commuter and thought they might pick me up a mpg or so over my Doug's 1 7/8

Doubt you'll see a mileage gain over the 1 7/8 tubes. But anyway Hedman has a race header (different from their street headers) that fit good and has big tubes for RAIV heads.

I was kind of joking about the MPG

Anyway, looks like they list the 2" for a 66 but not a 65, Jack your car is a 65, right? Do you remember if it was part no. 35030? Kind of random but I think I ran into you at a NAPA in Millersville about 5 years ago, since moved to Spokane WA and got my car running. At the time I was living in Bowie.

One of the best fitting headers. Hate they quit making them. I have a set on my 65 that came off my 66. Fit like a glove.

LOL,
I actually checked mine last week after a cruise; I got 4.7 miles to the gallon.
You can file it under pump gas streetcar with 2" headers.
