I recently noticed that the driver side down pipe is hitting my torsion bar. I measured the outside dimension of the pipe with a caliper and came up with 2 inch outside diameter. Everything I read is 2 1/4 inch or larger on a stock runner. With a 383 motor. The pipes are in good shape but if I...

Headers or stock manifold. HUM. Well ran headers on our 440 street drag car. Have stock exhaust man's on my 383 now. Headers gave us problem's with room for starter. and the bolt's to block where a challenge. Now with inner coating's they probably run cooler than the old style one's. They always...

Interesting to say the least. Post a video with sound when you get it all done.

Yes we did that but the cop's would give you a ticket. Still outlawed here in Fl. But it was neat.

Does any one remember putting a spark plug in the tail pipe to shoot flames. Think it is still out lawed. When you get them on let us here them. LOL.

We finely took and bent the header in a little so we would not have that problem any more. Use a piece of 3/8 inch flat bar and knocked the heck out of it on that spot. Then you could get a boxed end wrench on it. Don't remember which other one's where like that but did the same to them. Just a...

You know the word cant or won't is not in our vocab. So keep at it and you will get it. The thing is you would think some one making the headers would give us a little more room. LOL.

Just to say I don't know why the header bolts are so hard to get too. On a 440 we had and raced they where a pain in the B. I like the stud idea. But what about the star head bolt's. We had a wrench we had ground down. Also had a wrench that was off angled open end. But it being froze in the...

Yes I know about tight spots the dermal tool got in to where I could not get to grind a spot at the A pillar and roof area where I welded. They are a handy tool even if you only use it once you will use it again and again.

Time for the dermal tool with a grinder tip. It is slow but might get it into the hole. Or Harbor freight sell's grinding stones that will fit a drill. Faster than using a file by hand. That is a tight spot for sure.

I watched that episode and was quite sure that is what he would find out. HP exhaust did a better job than the headers. He got more HP out of the motor. Not much but a better result. So That is why I stuck with my exhaust manifold's. Plus they keep the heat away form the motor. Just my two cent's.

I am torn on chrome or stainless steel tip's. Chrome turns blue and the chrome now day's is not as good as back in the day. So think I will go with the stainless steel one's. I have turn down for now and will add the tips later. Good luck and it is your choice. But think it set's off the back of...
