Default Chevy II headers

Other than stainless(no money for that) what are the options? I was told tonight Davis is no longer in business.

Should have said step headers.

Darrin does perf welding make regular headers? I thought they only built stainless? I have Burns stainless collectors so I only need the headers made.

Jere has several different diameters available, and also offers step headers with three diameters (ie 1-7/8" to 2" to 2-1/8"). You cannot go wrong with Stahl headers.

Yes, I'm pretty sure he would build them out of steel. If you already have the collectors, I would try to spend the extra money and get stainless. You will be glad you did in the long run.
