Searching for a new set of headers
I posted earlier on November 17 about a clutch linkage problem with Hedman headers on my 72 swb. I'm going to replace the headers, but want to hear from anyone who runs a 350 in a similar year truck, who has installed headers that perform well and clear motor mounts, clutch linkage and frame rails.
I've been told that Holly flow tech and thorleys work well, any others? |

Randy I think his problem is with the clutch linkage. I am also looking for info for my buddy. His is a 2wd 4 speed. He also has the linkage problem.

I've got flowtechs on mine but have an automatic. Everything cleared well, but had to reposition some break lines.

Randy, that is a sweet looking engine. Mine is merely functional. I live part time in the mountains, and use the truck up there. I'll look into Hookers.

I would say Thorleys would be your best bet. What shape are your headers now? you mite beable to sell your to help off set the cost of new ones... Funny thing is I happen to know someone that mite have a need for a set of headers....Hint,Hint lol

Cethern, the Hedman headers I got in there now are in ok shape, though they are about three years old (I think). Fire me an email if you want em cheap when I pull them off.
