I was down the Garage with me Brother today and we managed to make those headers that you dropped off fit, just had to cut one tube a bit off the car, and a little bit of re-bending also cut two holes in the front fenders for the outlets and one in the hood for the carb.
Also modified the steering to fit just need to mod the oil pump, so quite a good day really.
So my new flanges and collectors are surplus to requirements so have a look on the for sale soon!!
Petrol is for washing parts, Alcohol is for drinking, Nitro is for racing!!!

Adam68 - Saw your update, looking good mate :thumbright:

If nothing else, the extra weight must help your traction :D :D

No only joking, loads of work there which doesn't get shown in a couple of photos.

GTXJim - Glad the headers turned out OK (no Pun intended) You & your bruv must have been busy once I left. Sorry if I slowed yer down :D
