Can you identify the header? ANYONE?
Ok, lets play name that header. I have only seen the pics of headers in catalogs and the RB in person so.
what is this one, lets call it header A. (supposedly 13b) http://abacus.sj.ipixmedia.com/abc/M...8222f0/i-1.JPG and this one, Header B. (supposedly 13b) http://abacus.sj.ipixmedia.com/abc/M...e6175f/i-1.JPG and Finally C. (supposedly 12a) http://abacus.sj.ipixmedia.com/abc/M...77f15d/i-1.JPG |
They are collectively known as ugly ass headers...
|
I knew that much.
|
the 2nd one is on Ebay....
I wouldn't buy it, but I saw it.... The only one I've actually seen is RB, and it says RB on the mounting flange. (that and the flange is one part, not two, like a couple of those) |
so why do you need to know this?

Ok here we go header "c" is a perphrial port only 12a race header for sure. Header "b" is a horribly assembled race header kit for a 12a not 13b(no o2 port) for sure, where all the pieces come in a box and you weld them together, it looks like old mazdatrix or mazda competition maybe. header "a" is a 13b header, but who made it somewhat of an enigma, it is beautiful though. 2 outta 3 not so bad!

They are all on ebay. They just do not seem to know what they have so I though I would ask the experts.
BTW it looks to me like B might have the O2 port on it, ther is a wire or somthing at the bottom of the header there. |
header b is a road race header,
the goes to a y and a presilencer |
btw they all look racing beat to me,
notice where the pipe bends,theres no wrinles, which means its either some real nice mandrel bends or thick wall steel, i put my money on thick wall steel,im pretty sure companys like pacesetter dont use thick wall steel. |
A is definetely not RB as the runners turn right after the flange and RB the rear runner travels outward a little bit to make the header equal length. plus it has no RB stamped in it.
I was thinking B was a RB knockoff of some kind as there is no RB stamped in it. There is no way in hell C is RB. RB are single flange. |
None of them are Racingbeat. #2 and #3 look like custom jobs w/awful bends. #1 I'm not familiar with.
|
The last pic is a Perperal port header.
|
c looks like a pp. header
|
why would a PP header be different from a normal header? the exhaust ports do not move.
|
The factory PP housings have a different bolt flange pattern.
I was looking at it myself and wondering... HMM. But it's so hard to tell that I didn't say anything. :) |

Guru B - (13B) looks like a racing beat copy or maybe a u-weld-it that just didnt have the RB cut out on the flange. C - (12A) not a perf. port, I own two that look very similar to this one. Peripherial ports have tiny flanges and the bolt holes are very close to the tube. |
No wonder the server was busy, 50 other people posting while I was trying to.
|
I have to go with nimrod on this one. THANKS! Where did the ones you own that are like C come from?
|
One was from a parts car and one from a car in a junkyard. Dead cars tell no tales; the owners didnt have a clue either. I suspect they might be mazda headers, but have found no proof.
Oddly enough, the one that came with the parts car had a presilencer bolted to it that looked just like the presilencer thats attached to header B. |
I dunno, and I dont care :). Im getting my RB stuff this Thursday (see sig to see what Im getting):D.

note also that the top header is for a 13b from racing beat not a 12a.
maybe its not from rb but looks damn close. |
it does look close, I never seen the PP header before. But C looks like the flange is bigger as nimrod said. I am goin for it anyhow.
|
how much is it going for? I'll sell you one of my headers for $100
|
I think it is less than that.....for now.....sounds like a good deal. I assume yours bolts up to the stock cat.
