Just finished making my motor mounts and I have to give Hedman credit for even trying to install 1 5/8 headers in such a small space.



Also they will work better on angle plug heads than straight plug which is great because i have set of the World Sportsman 2 fully ported to go on top of my 406.



They fit really nice. I hope they hold up well.



Anybody got any experence on what is the best header paint?



Next thing to work on is deciding to rework the trans crossmember or just have a piece of 3\" pipe to go around it.



Well it\'s off to finish the cab work so i can set it back on the frame.



I will keep you posted and hope to see some of you guys at New England Dragway this summer, 80 somthing days to go.

Mine are JetHot Coated. Cost was about $240. Also well worth it. The guys that sent them to JetHot for me sell a Turbo kit and all are equiped with an EGT (exhaust gas temp) Guage. They are seeing 60* tempature drops with the JetHot Coating on they\'re kit. Not bad for the money.
