I spent the weekend cutting and welding heat exchangers for some headers I got from Bleyseng. I guess these are Eurorace that Zois had, then, Brad then, Geoff and now me. Anyway they are stainless and I used 304 stainless for the jackets.

Hope this works cause I barely left the garage and I used up the last few car tokens I had with the wife.

Well Brad you were right. The magnet sticks real good. My bad I should have taken a magnet along when i bought them.

I'm unclear on the maker, I was just passing on what I was told. However, that's really not important to me at this point. I bought them so I'll run them. I'm gonna change the collector as it's pretty crappy. I'll play around with the math but I'm leanning towards a 4-2-1 rather than 4-1. I'm just waiting on case hardware and lifters before putting together a new 2270. I need the figures for lift and duration to determine the configuration of the pipes.

I eyeballed clearance on the car so I'd say I have a 50/50 chance it'll fit without (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) .

I too am concerned about resistance. It passed my built in bellows test. It's very easy to blow through. However, our lungs move a pretty fair amount of air so I doubt that's a good test.

We'll see. I need some heat. There are just too many times up here when I would leave it in the garage if it didn't have heat.
