Re: Headers... tell me which set to buy.

I looked long and hard for headers to put on the 383 in my '90 Suburban. Settled on stainless steel Edelbrock shortys with the powdered titanium finish (Ti-Tec). About $350.

Indestructible finish unaffected by heat, water, chemicals. I find carb cleaner and a paper towel cleans 'em up fine (make sure they're COOL first!).

Like any headers, keeping them sealed is a challenge. Finally used Stage 8 locking bolts ($40)at the heads and double-nutted the collector bolts, except one which had too-tight clearance. This one I safety-wired.

Lovely harmonics through the 3" single exhaust and Gibson muffler at about 70 on the Interstate!
