Red's headers

[edwardbarras]

Has anybody experienced clearance issues when installing headers on a 49 flathead v 8?

The headers fit fine on my '49 coupe - I had trouble getting the left one in place and think had to work it in place from underneath the car.

I had trouble with clearance of the left exhaust pipe and the clutch release lever and brake pedal. I solved the problem by pulling the pipe off the header as far as I could and not have a leak. Took some twisting to get it away from the brake pedal.

I had a problem with 8ba engine I installed in the 39 frame. Bolted it to the engine and put a rake handle inside the header pipe and bent to desired location needed. All good now.

Fit perfectly on my '41 Coupe.
