The Castle CH-96 headers are identical to the Pacemaker 4010 except the pacemakers are 1 1/2.

Now someone else has ripped the Castle 1 5/8 ones off in stainless for $449 on the bay!!!!

They are all using exactly the same description!!!

They will clear the RRS steering but probably not the AOD.
I wouldnt worry about the aod the bell housing is the same size at the engine worst case the collectors are close further back. just cut them and angle them out.

Yeah the article I was reading I believe was just referring to max flow for max hp. Obviously the dyno graph lines would tell a much different story. I can see why ITB's would be great for instant throttle response in racing.

More importantly they look and sound cool as fuck, even more so in a sleeper. To be honest if I can get 500+ at the flywheel I'll be happy but Ian reckons it will do some what better than that with a solid roller and some revs. I got a Dart block so I could rev it, and rev it I shall. They get a bit over 500 at the wheels in the Trans -am 351sbf/350sbc, with a rev limit of 7k on a DP carb, 11:1 comp 200cc unported heads, bowel blending and port matching a side so I'm looking to do something similar if I can.

Pistons showed up, came with Mahle 1.5/3.5mm rings , I normally buy Total seal but these came in the deal. These pistons have 8.5cc dish which is exactly what I need for my compression goal. Got them from Skip White racing in Tennessee, he has them custom made. They are 2618 alloy

Pretty! I saw skip white on ebay, well priced and shipping is not bad also. Had some fairly priced stroker kits there

Is that the pro-comp setup? How does the quality look?

yes and it looks fine by me. If new I would buy center fuel rails but it is so sexy. Time to wire it up.
I will someday think of something clever to say.

Yeah they are higher than I was expecting.
Can't cut them off and weld them back on to the flange a little lower?

Keep in mind the cold air box needs half the diameter of the tubes, above them, to flow properly, that will also take up room.

Looks really cool.

Quick question. Do you know how I can tell you're a QLD'er?
