I will be able to make them work, I am gonna cut the flanges and use the 2 center primary tubes as the rearmost primary tubes and then modify the other 2 tubes to fit around the control arms, I am gonna do my best to keep them equal-length.

We compared the bolt pattern to the A460 and I am using only the lower hole on the header flange which is same location as the EX's. Just using them as a reference. You can see where the BBC bolt pattern would be if they were drilled and tapped on the EX's. My heads are still getting worked on and using these to avoid any delay.

He is using my Eliminator heads for mock up. He is correct the lower bolt holes are the same.

I like them. A little bringing, and some coating and they'll look top notch. Like I said before I wish I knew you did headers and I would have had you do mine rather than wait.

Well I did about 5 hours of grinding and patching little pinholes got all but one primary tube done, my hand was numb from the pnuematic angle grinder so i got the waterpump mocked up on the engine plate. I will be finishing the last rpimary tube tomorrow and get the brackets made for the engine plate, then I am going to make the sump deeper on the oilpan and mock up will be done. Smile

Yes I do, that is gonna be a summer purchase. The local tech school offers mig, tig or oxy/acetolene certification courses for just under $500 during the summer so I believe that I will take the tig class.
