But by noon its so hot in the garage to stand it. Low and behold I hear a delivery truck pull up the drive..the headers are here!

Hedman Headers, part # 69830. Elite series!
It looks like you got work to be done!! be sure and post some pics when finished. Headers are one of those things where a little extra money spent really pays off...those are a good quallity header and should seal good and not give you any trouble. Your not too far from me...I use to run a route truck thru your town years ago

Re: Surprise from UPS!

Don’t throw away those ram horn exhaust manifolds whatever you do. I know you won’t believe right now, but there will be a day when you will be ready to throw the headers in the iron pile and go back to manifolds. You will get tired of exhaust leaks (even on high quality headers like Hedman’s), burnt plug wires and starter issues. I went through that header stage in life once and for what little power gain headers provide, they are not worth the hassle. They look nice though!

Totally agree! Been there, done that.
