Title: complete set of brand new headers
Post by: tb3 on February 11 2012, 09:31:06 AM
these are the gsca club headers.  Since buying them, I've decided to just run my stockers to keep a mostly stock appearing look under the hood. 
 
brand new, never installed.  very very nice craftmenship on these.  comes with gaskets, hardware, paperwork, everything. 
the other half of the crossover is included.  I just didn't unwrap it for the pics.
 
$550 shipped to the lower 48.

I'm suprised you haven't sold these yet. PM Guess over on the big board. He's rebuilding the car and now the engine so he might be interested in getting a new set for his car and save some headaches. Tell him I suggested it. :)

What is the coating? The 2000* stuff? How is fitment with a 3" downpipe? They look good.

I guess these are mild steel?

Post by: tb3 on February 11 2012, 08:18:41 PM
it's supposed to be better steel than mild steel, but not stainless.  I'll check my paperwork tommorow.

not sure on the coating off the top my head either.  if I recall it's baked on ceramic, don't quote me on that. it sure feels like it.
these are very very similar to postin headers.  stock turbo placement is the same.  they will clear any down pipe that stock headers will.

charlie I'm not home till tommorow, pass the word on for me please

Will do. Hopefully someone gets these off of you. Lord knows how many headers I've got here right now that need some work. :O  If they were HA specific I'd be trying to do some horse trading with you. :D

supersix, stop being a cheap-ass!  its only money, you can't take it with you. think how much cooler your friends think you will be with these headers :rock:
 
still need to find out the steel.
 
 
 
charlie,
I can help you get that thing to plain out if you just listen to me. :075:
lean forward, wayyy forward, on your hands and knees.   
put your sphincter right up above the rear line of the boat,  and grunt with everything you got!
I know you've got some untapped horsepower in there :add_wegbrech:

I am only considering headers because while the ones I have aren't cracked - the crossover clams and bolt holes are fubared.

400 shipped? :D

Bastard in terms of those that don't go by convention Steve. :rock:  Since I'm a C/T HA guy and most of you don't go by conventional rules we kinda fit together. :atbeer:

I can't do $400 shipped. 
I paid $595+shipping for these, so I'm already taking a beating at $550 shipped. 
 
these are made of inconel steel.   
 
they really are very very nice. 
the gaskets line up with the ports dead-on. 
the inside of the flanges have been welded.  theres room to do some porting, if so desired.
 
it pains me to not install  them.  I probably would if the headers on our cars where a little more visible (just for the bling factor). 
the reality is I know that neither one of my cars will be faster than 11.5.  and I can accomplish that on unported stockers.

charlie, cut the turbo flange off of the pass side header and reweld at the correct angle, and youve got a killer set of hot air headers, just sayin

LOL I've already got a killer set of aftermarket stainless that I've got to mod. :icon_lol:  Much better design as well. :rock:
