Does anyone have any photos or suggestions on modifying SBC headers by cutting off the XXXX flange, separating the two middle tubes, and welding up a Y Block header flange? Particularly interested in what anyone has done for a 55/56 Ford passenger car with standard transmission. I would be in the market for a set of Jardeen's but that may be a rare find right now.

Any leads on quality flanges?
