Speed Daddy headers for Hot Air's?

[b4black]

Take a look at these headers on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/RACING-TURB...Parts_Accessories&hash=item51a5df4dc3&vxp=mtr

They are listed as 86/87, but sure look like 84/85.

Compare them to these 86/87 Speed Daddy Headers:

They are definately different.

Cool. Turbonut85's next mod lol

 

[turbonut85]

Well, they're more expensive than the 86-87 style.....so they MUST be for a hot air...lol

At $218 shipped....they might just be worth a shot...I've wasted more money on less for my hot air car...that's for sure.

there almost local to me. maybe i should go take a look for us

the fitment page says it only fits G bodies with the 3.8L GNX engine...
that means it won't fit a GN or T Type, right?

 

[Boost231]

unless u have a hotair gnx

 

[alec296]

seen the 4 bolt hotair looking heade someone go there and see if they know what they have

Now we're talkin!! Brent---if you do go there give me a shout or a text. I'm thinking I just might put the $$$ down and get a set...I can mock them up on a spare engine and check for fit...maybe these are the new age Postons....or maybe they're junk...who knows? I'd be willing to invest and do the research for the other hot air owners. I think the 1st step is a phone call and a visit...if Brent likes what he sees...I'll give em a try. ---Keith

Speed Daddy makes headers for the Supercharger 3800 Regals as well. They aren't consider to be the highest quality, but they do get recommended on a bang for buck basis.

If someone goes there and they fit an 84/85, please let them know with minor change to the uppipe, these could work on all 1979-83 Turbo Regals as well.

That would be cool if they fit, even if they are cheapo headers they might be better than stock.
Someone please checkem out and let us know how they fit.

I did as well....

 

[turbonut85]

Alright....I talked to them on the phone today and asked some questions....gathered enough info to be comfortable...so I bought a set. I'll mock them up and check them out. I'll post up pics and such as I go...if they work, great...if they don't, no biggie. It's worth the gamble to me since I have gotten so much help here on the board. I don't really need these since I am running a set of Postons...so it's more for the "greater good" than anything.

damn, i can still swing by if you guys want

 

[turbonut85]

damn, i can still swing by if you guys want

Still wouldn't hurt....my main concern is if they will require a flex joint between the pass side header and the up pipe piece they show in the pic....

 

[RUDE DOG]

Alright turbonut, sounds good cant wait till you receive them, wish I was getting them but its ok and I understand that its for the good of the hot air community.
