Brand New Cast Iron Grey Motor Headers.

Post by FB MAD »

After god knows how long since they were last produced some brand new grey motor cast iron headers have hit the market.

See Ebay item number 370081427934.

Someone more computer literate than me will have to do a link thingo to it :oops:

They look like a repro of the old Klienig cast iron headers.

I'll havta save up me playlunch money and get some soon hopefully :D

Couldn't justify the cost when you can get extractors for $140 to $170 :roll: , Trev 8) .

Your right Trev, extractors are much cheaper and actually work to some extent in improving engine performance ( especially tuned length extractors).

Headers really don't help much at all performance wise, maybe only because they allow fitment of less restrictive twin exhaust system.

Really only help in the looks department.

A bit like a NASCO clock.They only enhance the look of the dash, don't make the car go faster but some people still want them.

My $9.99 servo station watch does the same thing as the expensive NASCO clocks.

The headers are fairly highly priced compared to prices of original ones.

Meyers, Lanspeed,Speco, and Klienig headers have been selling for $550 to $650 mark on evilbay although a set of Klienig ones sold a few days ago on evilbay for only $400.

Autobilly, the extractors for greys are available on evilbay new.Just type in "grey motor' or other type search words in the evilbay search bar and some should come up.

If no luck, send me a PM.I've got the phone number of the bloke that sells them on evilbay.
