Yep! That and a few other items. I've been slowly but surely collecting some junk heads for mock-up. I still need an A460 and C460 head, and then some of the different K members that guys use. Right now a money shortage has put a damper on things after my 5 week furlough. I've discussed this with Charlie and got his feedback on a form I created for a potential customer to fill out with all the information I would need, crankshaft center line, engine tilt, plates original mounts, transmission, starter, etc. One day I will get this off the ground.

let me know if i can help

Will do. Back in Nov. I thought I had a car. I found a '90 LX with no engine, had some rust but the front end was in perfect condition and the guy wanted $200 for it. I hooked the trailer and headed over there. When I got there he tried to jack up the price to $600 . Pissed me off big time , I told him to stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

I can post some pics of the headers out of the car since the engine is out at this time! I can also post some pics later when it's back together.

thank you Mike ..did you modify the shock towers any

Other than cutting holes to get to the spark plugs, no!

Get a good chassis shop to do you a set you will be well satisfied with the result, for some reason I resisted doing that years ago, but after I had Prime Time Racecars in Greensboro , NC build me a set they have built all mine with the exception of my latest Turbo headers, The benifits of a custom fit set just rocks!

another vote for the fab shop service . I bought a set of c460 flanges from him for profilers , when they got here i found out the bolt pattern is the same , the port locations are not . He told me to send the flanges back, and he would make me another set like i wanted, all of the swapping worked without a hitch . the quality of the flanges for the price cant be beat.

ok , no worries mate . I could tell you what RGL stands for, but I would have to see the secret handshake first.

Post their number if you don't mind. I'm needing a set for some P51s in a Fox chassis...


Hey Nick, How soon before you'll be selling them Kooks?

Do you have any good pics of them in the car? I'm concerned about ground clearance and trans pan clearance.

so any of the swap kits made will fit the dove-c??? i was going to say i never hear this prob before mines going to be a street car, you know anything about the d&d kit tho? individual tubes? they ceramic coated? and hows the ground clearance?

That D&D kit is a good deal. Should fit good too. Bob at D&D is a great guy to talk to and will answer your questions. He'll let you know what parts his kit is going to work with and what it is designed for. The headers will have whatever flanges you need on them and coating is extra.

There are amore than a few guys on here using the D&D stuff.

okay cool thanks man
