BTW, I measured my square ports....little bigger than 1.75" from corner to corner. I'd have to use those spare flanges I have and somehow weld 'em onto the header flanges, then port 'em that way.

Still thinking about your offer. Perhaps a package deal.

Sense the tubes are tig welded to the header flanges on the the outside you can port match the inside of flanges to your ports.. Unlike a stock header thats welded on the inside and you have to weld around the outside of the tubes so you can remove material on the inside were its welded

If you look at your set, the tubes go right through the flange and are flush with the flange mounting surface. If you port there you'll be grinding away at the tube first, then into the flange. You'd create thin spots in the tubing right at the edge which would break off eventually and go through the turbo. Not good.

Im sure i could take my die grinder with a carbide rotory file and get rid of all the tube thats not welded to the flange.
Just a thought I would think others have run those same header on that style of port before?

ok I'm dying to know, what's the story with "Gunther"?

And damn nice car if I didn't have a gn already and were still looking for a Turbo Regal I'd be very interested in this myself, I know a buddy of mine is seriously thinking about this car, I've just gotta poke at him some more.

Hmmmm....that just might work. As long as it's deep inside the port, right at the weld.

And I dunno but I'd assume there's other heads with ports like mine.

[quote=Dixiesys;1734732]ok I'm dying to know, what's the story with "Gunther"?

Gunther was a member or the GNRA (Grand National Racing Association)and treasurer for the club and also doing the same for his fellow brother fire fighters retirement fund. That was until they caught him with his hand in the funds for i heard $220,000.00 Thats why i was joking about looking for a Stash under the rear seat..
Now he is in jail spending some quality time with Buba and his friends...
