Who on this forum MAKES headers?

It was a little while ago, but someone posted a thread, saying he could make headers. Collected, un-collected, stainless, turbo, ect....

WHO WAS HE?

I was strapped for cash at the time, and now I'm throwing it at my car like theres no tomorrow. LOL!

Thanks

If you have the cash now then I recommend that you buy the racing beat system.
It takes alot of engineering and testing to make a functional header.

To answer your question though, I have no idea. :-)

It's gotta be thickwall pipe. At least 1/8" wall thickness. Anything less, especially with headers, will sound bad.

RB is not the best header I think everyone knows that, but its the best bang for the buck which is what makes it the best.

Last I heard Robert from Rotary Shack, and BanzaiToyota from this forum both bought the rights of the SDJ headers.

I personally have one and I tell you its a thing of beauty and really good power:

If all else fails, I know Bryon of Sputnic Motorsports in Kennedale, TX can fabricate whatever header you want, like you want, in whatever material you want.

Still here!

I was hoping for dual outlet. I have a streetport mid pipe and axle back already...

Do you think a collected header would make more power?
