Reply to "180 Deg Headers"

Correct- the u-bends drop down through 4" dia holes you cut. Be aware that after you get the things mounted but before you drive, you MUST fabricate a heat-shield to got between the headers and the rear decklid. 060-thick aluminum is fine. A good shield will be maybe 4' by 2' and will be attached to the decklid bracing with multiple stand-offs so theres a big air-gap above & below. Not running a shields will quickly destroy the paint on your rear deck; on the car I raced, paint boiled and charred on the deck after 20 miles of wide-open running.
You'll also find that the sound from the headers is addictive, possibly to the detriment of your drivers license! And working around the engine is impossible. All spark plugs must now be R & R-ed from below, and God help you if you need to tune the carb or adjust valves....
