Just removed the 50 manifolds from my COE and Yep! fell into pcs and looks
soft and thin. I'm wondering if headers (dual?) could be built for one of
these trucks? They build headers from tin tubing all the time for racers, why
not for these? I don't think equal length will be all that neccassary on it as
not high performance anyway. Anyone ever build headers and what problems do
you have with such an undertaking? Are all the bends into head able to be
boughten? Seems like they would need to be small diameter, not more than 1-1/4
or 1-1/2" at most. The collector(s) would be harder part I would think. Can it
be kept away from carb which is also down there in a COE?
