He's the one that gave me his cracked set of SBC chrome EX headers,that I cut the flange off of an welded a Y Ford EX flange on by just putting a little gap between the center pipes{ all the rest lines up dead on to the Ford { see header in Post #305} . So doing his Chevy man thing last nite,he tell every one standing around just after I trun off my car, Hear that,"A Ford never sounded so good with Chevy headers !"
My comeback this time was,"Your right they do sound a lot better now then they did on a SBC" Even the other Chevy guys had to LOL a little,I'm out numbered by SBC now days most shows.

Headers, what a fake out..... pretty slick! I am a big fan of chrome headers, more appealing than the coated. I see you have a chopped rag top, much better looking. I always have thought the T's tops were to tall. You solved that very well, proportionally correct, does not look top heavy.
