I’ve tried the search function but couldn’t find what I’m looking for. My question is what is a good quality, great fitting header for my mildly hot rodded 69 318/727 truck?
Preferably a 1 5/8”-1 3/4” step header or straight 1 3/4”.

Re: 318 Headers
Headman does or did make long tube headers for our trucks. Lots of "stainless" (china) shorty headers out there too.

Re: 318 Headers
Thanks for the info. I had a couple air of the short stainless headers and sold them. I’ll check out Herman.

That's "Hedman." What was the source of your dissatisfaction with the stainless shorties?Commando66 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 19, 2020 8:51 pmThanks for the info. I had a couple air of the short stainless headers and sold them. I’ll check out Herman.

Re: 318 Headers
The shorty headers are not much better than exhaust manifolds. Too short to make more power. But the shorties are what i ended up with.

Re: 318 Headers
Stans is too much $$$ for me. I just bought some shorties to get it back on the road.
