The Stahl header was perfect. 3 pictures attached. I had them send the
engine plate to me first so we could fit it to the modified head. Had them
use 16 gage 1-5/8" tubing instead of 18 gage. It is 4 into 1. The fit of
the primary tubes to the rectangle exhaust outlets was perfect as if they
had been forged to shape. The primary tubes, as best I could measure, were
exactly the same length. I had the collector welded and they used an
additional strap around the primary tubes at the point they fit into the
collector. I then had Airborne ceramic coat it to reduce the radiated heat,
they say, by 35%. The collector was close to touching the frame at one
point and Allen made a little more clearance by modifying the frame at that
point, but other than that no fitting problems. (Note my old header had the
same frame clearance problem)
Bud's old header is 4 into 1 & has rust etc. but is sound and useable. I
have no idea who made it, perhaps Bud could tell us. Cheers!

Hi John,
How did the Stahl header work out? How did it fit? Any frame clearance
issues? What is the old header like? Do you know who made it? Is it a
4-1, or 4-2-1?

Subject: [Fot] Exhaust Headers
Amici: When my headers exploded at Road Atlanta, Bud kindly sent me an old
set in case I was unable to get the New Stahl headers fit for VIR. I was
able to get the new set on a day before we left; so, the used set is now
available to anyone who finds themselves in a similar fix. Just let me know
and they will be on their way to you for the cost of shipping.....
