Mods--this might be a good one to sticky >>>>>

Here are some pics of my car with the new headers . Hedman Hustler fender well headers (VERY nice quality) , RB motor in 70 Dart . Schumacher stock type motor mounts. 727 , no power steering or power brakes.

These pics should answer a lot of questions about clearance . O:)

You see the paint bubbling up ?
Thats Eastwood header paint , $38 a can .
headers were prepped and cleaned twice , followed all their directions, ..eastwood says to run them on your engine for 20 minutes to cure the paint.

I ran it for 4 minutes today and you see the results.
 
If you arent using a motor plate , you will have to "clearance" the areas around the shock towers . I used a BFH and just touched up the paint (this aint no show car)
 
Post some pics of the mounts when you do it -- definitely a great idea ! I had that problem with ALL the Hooker headers i had --they all cracked open every other week . The Hedmans seem to be MUCH higher quality than the Hooker.
 
Is that the Hedman coating ? Has any of your blue paint burned off?

I just touched up all the burned areas in my pics, but the Hookers burned the **** out of all my nice orange paint
 
I haven,t had any burned paint with these being coated $$$$,you can actually work on the engine after about 10mins after a pass.I can also hold my hand about 3-4 inches from them after shutting down.The coating works amazing and no discolouring so far(after 1 year)
