Didn't know leprosy would attack steel tubing!!
Maybe that's just a "prototype"??
 
I would agree. Looks like some of the workmanship I have seen coming out of some speed shops. :eek:


Wonder if the Chinese are going to copy those? Oh wait they can't hack $hit up that bad!!!!

Nice pic..

Chinese or Cali one or the other:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
 
Looks like they predicted all the places the header could crack and pre-welded up the cracks before they happened. They even pre-re-welded some of the problematic spots. They are way ahead of the curve when it comes to thinking outside of the box. They even cut off the original 3bolt flange and welded on a 4 bolt flange and then cut that off and re-welded the 3 bolt flange back on.....and cut it back off and welded on the 4 bolt flange. This is all already done for you so you can just install and go. This is truely the last header you will ever need.;)
 
Can you post the part # or when I call will you know what I am ordering?????????????????????????????????
 
There's a "import speed specialty shop" here in the Atl area, that sends $hit very much like that, to my bud's powdercoating shop!!!
 
Stick welding 101.
What would be kinda fun would be to build a header like that, but actually grind the joints internally. Keep the external globs on there. Have the rest of the intake system look like that, too. BUT...........build it to run 8's.:biggrin: Open the hood and have NO trouble getting high dollar races. You could clean house! You could put yer hat on sideways, and start talking "Yo!, check out my twin Honda! This iz da ****Z!......Yer POS Mustang ain't got nuttin' on THIS! Ya, it makes OVER 900 HP! My boyz here got 3 large to prove it! Yo! wuz-UP!"
I might have to try that. Build some stainless headers, then scab on some schedule 40 pieces OVER the nice headers. Plug in my (NEVER used) stick welding leads into my TIG, and use some Ni-rod. I'm not sure I can be that "artistic", though.;) It would be cool to leave some MIG wire sticking out of it like a porcupine.:D (but changing plugs would be painful) Would it work on PINKS? Anyone want to donate parts for a PINKS car? I would have to build a Mustang, Honda or Supra. That would be a little more believable. I'll have my son drive it and talk like a "Ricer". :biggrin: He would have to talk like this about the car. YouTube - VTEC Cobra

Thanks for posting that. I feel better about some of my welds.
 
These are made by a new up and coming company out of the former country of Yugoslavia. They had to use up all the left over Yugos. Not sure of their website address but the part # on these is WFT-FUBAR1 :D

I say we start a poll to come up with a name. I call them "Franken headers", direct relative to the "Franken pipe". :p Hopefully there will be a improvement on the next set of headers coming out of that speed shop. :biggrin: :eek:
