Well making headers is not very hard for me but I just don't have the time these days. Just wondering if there was something off the shelf that could be easily modified that's cheap like the pacesetters. The doug thorleys are nice but for the 700 bucks vs my time I would rather fab em.
i bought a cheap set of long tube headers off of ebay, the were new and for a 2000 camaro, but it is for a 86, had to slice the collector on the drivers side and angle it in, and ground about 1/8 inch, 12 inch long, off the right side and the fit good now. out less the 200 total
1987 jeep wrangler, 1999 LS 1, 4l60 231j transfercase, dana 30 frontend ford 8.8 rearend 3:73 gear ratio. sandersons shortie headers, 2.25 inch exhaust into 3 inch flowmaster muffler.
Now that's what I'm lookin for. Now my concern is whether or not your 86 frame is wider or narrower than my 64. I know the frames are very similar for 60-72 but wonder what changes were made for your body style? You wouldn't happen to know the width of your frame in the engine bay area would you?
Finally took a picture of my truck lol. And so the build begins.. gettin a 3600 stall this weekendand hopefully pullin it in the garage this week and yankin the ol 235 and sm420. Almost feel bad cuz its all in such good shape.. and its red BTW. Its not a halloween truck. I dunno if its my computer or the iphone i took the pic with but it looks very orange to me lol
