Default Pontiac Log style modular header
Has anyone tried these Turbo headers? It says its for "Air Boats" however I dont see why they would not work for vehicles... as long as it leaves room for accessories.

I have been looking at these as well. I wonder if I could make them work with a March Serpentine system.

I really like the modular part of it all... Cant wait to see how you get it all built up... I hope they leave room for AC and the rest of the accessories...

You get both L&R for $799.00... which is not a bad deal when you consider everything else is a "CLAMP ON" pipe... right to the Turbo. The only needed fabbing would be the exhaust exit pipe.

Ill purchase them once I'm ready to mock everything up...

Yeah, same here... for me these are a game changer and the only reason I have been on the fence between Turbo or centrifugal...

Got a build update picture today from the guy building my headers. He said they'll be out the door today. He took that picture last night before he went home. Very nice guy named Steve.

I could have them made by my Fabrication Shop cheaper than $1600 and made using one of my blocks and heads. But they are very nice looking, and I already have a set made by Turbo455 years ago. (that fit perfectly)

$799 is a very good deal for a PAIR of stainless manifolds,

Could not tell if the add was saying one piece or two pieces.

The first link shows ONE header, not TWO Headers and the Number of parts says ONE
Why I assumed 1600 for a SET.

Tom, after you posted the 1600 I went back to actually read the entire add... I was way to excited to take the time to read it all the first time. LOL

down the page it does say:

(8) Purge Tig Welded primaries coped into a compound manifold, made of 0.120" heavy wall pipe, 304 SS.

(2) Compound log manifolds with a 2 1/2" outside diameter, kept tight against the engine block for tight engine bay applications, ending with a 2 1/2" v-band flange for additional modular components
So it does appear that you get 2 headers for the $799.00...

SPEED SAFE, NICK
