buds truck Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Got the stainless Headers yesterday from that "auction site". Beautiful pieces they are and the price was sooooo good. I installed both the headers and the exhaust system I got from Jegs today. Good fit all around. All I have left to do is to install the crossover pipe (ran out of pipe and had to go buy a short length). Everything is tacked into place and fits good. The headers are beautiful in my opinion. All in all a good day Quote
buds truck Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 more pix of the exhaust and 2 of the beginning process of restoring the 49 Plymouth gauges that will go in the 49 Plymouth dash I installed in the truck. Quote
ggdad1951 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 should have warned me to wear my welding mask to look at those pics! WOW! Nice! Quote
Dave72dt Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Is the bed going to sit that low over the frame? What's the outsoide dimension of the engine with the headers on it? Wondering if they would fit inside a stock dimension frame. Thanks, and it looks great! Quote

Wondering if they would fit inside a stock dimension frame. Thanks, and it looks great! Yes, the bed is going to sit that low over the frame, I sure won't be hauling any gravel in it for sure . the outside dimension of the motor with the headers are 26" outside to outside at the flanges and 29" at the widest area at about rocker cover height. Hope this helps. Bud Quote
Dave72dt Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Helps a bunch. Headers for an early V8 Dakota, right? May save me the effort of masking my own. Thanks. Quote
buds truck Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Posted January 13, 2011 $89.00 and shipping, if interested I will pm you the auction. Quote
Dave72dt Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 If you would, please. My engine is recessed quite a ways into the firewall and I have a decent amount of side clearance by the rear cylinders, but enough? Quote
