Will Kenne-Bell steel(not stainless) headers work in your application? Excellent shape, w/all the clamps. I need to get $500.00 out of them. Any interest- let me know

KB headers will not work with a 3.5 THDP or a 3" THDP unless it is the THDP designed for the KB or ATR headers. HTH

I tried to get back to you this morning, but the site was down. I figured(based on Stu's observations), the pics would be a waste of time. But hey- we tried!! Houston's making his own stainless headers. Have you contacted him? Happy hunting

huston only made a small amount of headers and they are very hard to find. you can make a 3.5 dp work with atr headers by cutting the dp and turning it and rewelding it. or the old hammer works. you have to dent it by where the cross over clamp hits it. i know this sounds bad but you cant see it when installed. i did it under desperation and went 9.70's on a stock block.

Hey Stu- Aren't the ATRs and K/Bs almost identical? I've not seen the ATRs in person, but from their catalog, it seems so(like maybe someone copied someone's design). If that process works for the ATRs, I'd bet it would for the K/Bs as well(as much as I'd hate to bugger up a new 3.5" DP). I wonder if anyone else out there has had any experience with a 3.5" and K/B headers?

The ATRs and the KBs are the same design except 1 1/8" primaries for the KB's and 1 1/4" for the ATR's. If a 3.5 can be modded for the ATRs then the same can be done for the KBs.

Well LV GN: Goes to show- where there's a will, there's a dead person, ER- I mean: a way. Even if it's painful! I don't like not being able to edit these screens either. Oh well: It's still great to have this forum, AND IT"S FREE!!! Hey CANUK- At least you know there's an option open to you, and it's still good for 9's.

I'll figure something out... Jason said the headers project was on indefinite hold, but i never heard about the dp..anything by jason is definately gonna kick ass, he really does his homework. Nick micale's new headers are gonna kick ass too!
