Re: Headers to 2.5" Ramhorns

Yukon Jack - Only the passenger side manifold came with the heat tube. I left it in, but after reading what Jaros44sr said about it rusting out eventually, I think I will be drilling it out and filling it.

See Ten - I think I must have had the thinner, uncoated headers. They came in a black primer. Under $200 for the set from Summit. It was the heat wrap that destroyed them, but the ball and socket collector connection should never be used on a thin gauge header because it just crushes down like a crush sleeve everytime you tighten it, or when the motor moves on its mounts.
