Has anyone used these headers? If so, please, all the info and reviews I can get. At $690, a pretty big purchase for me. I like the fact that they are 4into one instead of a common pipe like the stock ones. Yestertech has some as well at the same price, but I'm just "feelin" the Rex.

There was some feedback from someone about them, used on a pretty stout motor. I don't remember where that was though, here, Y-block Magazine, somewhere else.. I want to say that the motor in question was between 400 and 500hp, so they are probably the best off-the-shelf header available for the vehicles they are designed to fit.

Thanks Charlie, that's what I was thinking as well. They certainly "look" the part. Quality looks good.

I believe Red's Heads sell the same style headers as well.

I understand that these headers will not work with an automatic transmission. Some clearance problem. I have a set that will go on when I put the blower motor in. I'll know more then I'm sure.
Y's guys rule! Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

Moon shadow, It says floor mount manual OR automatic with "some modification". I was looking at that and some minor clearencing on the shift linkage I think all need be done. I dunno, won't really matter with the T5. I KNOW all will clear then.

I figured at the worst I could use a cable column shift adapter.

I have a pair of Red's Headers on my 56 and they are not a 4 into 1. They call them passenger dual tube headers. For my blower motor in the coupe I went with Ram's Horns and will build a 2&1/2" exhaust system (with electric cut-outs!!) Rono

Interested in the difference between Red's and Rex's as they look the same but I think Red's are a little cheaper.
