Header building
 

How critical is it, for the tubes to be the same length when building headers?

Are there important dos and don'ts when building them?

Header builders seem to be a dying breed around Ohio, so we may have to try it ourselves.

In a door car, ease of installation, spark plug access and ground clearance takes precedence over equal length.

On a Stocker, it's very critical. Try to get them within 2". Also, get your primary tubes "phased" in the collectors correctly and get your "math" right what ever formula you use!

The OP has had multiple threads asking about header types and builders for 4 years now. He's had numerous replies during that time advising him who to go to including the best, Calvin Elston who now is no longer in business.

Thank you Clark! He is close to home

First of all, why must you get on other people's threads and come across as negative? How about being positive and helpful?

I didn't know it was against the rules to ask questions, some of us don't know it all. Each post was asking a different question.

I did contact Clavin and he wasn't taking on any more. He was a great to talk with. Even though my post says near Ohio, not 12 to 14 hours away.
