Re: Crossbred, 454 into an '85 Ram

So i picked up these headers at a swapmeet a month or so back. $50, brand new, but no gaskets or hardware---pretty good deal i thought. I cant find any info on them, just you basic 1 3/4" big block street header. They look just like or similar too truck headers so i bought them--The guy seemed to think they were fo a Chevelle, maybe an early one from what i can tell, but im still thinking they are truck headers.

Today i got a chance to get the drivers side to fit. Pretty easy to do, just had to slightly notch the top of the rail about 3/4" to get it in. They basically went right in after that, no dinging tubes or whatnot--, just bolt 'em up. The holes seem a little to tight from the front of the head to the rear, so i will have to drill them to the next size when i remove them. Now, on to the pass side.......
