Re: anyone tried these ssr headers yet?

Yeah I just got a pair of late model F-bod manifolds, I am just going to port them out as much as possible and use those. After hearing of header issues from so many brands, I'll stick to manifolds even if it means sacrificing a bit of power to do so. That and I won't have to worry about dragging them when I lower it.

Well, if you got the cheap manifolds i did from ebay, the flanges can be modded to 3 inch or chopped off and 3 inch pieces added on. 80$, was worth it.

bringing up the past here....but, did anyone ever try the SSR headers?

i need headers for my setup, but i don't think BRP is going to have their new design finished when i'm ready to do exhaust.

Re: anyone tried these ssr headers yet?

here is a link to the page...matt aka mw66nova started it....the price of the brp stuff is much better and i like the idea of ceramic coated for heat purposes. not sure if they will fit my timeline though, sounds like its going to be post november before anything solid happens.
