Heard of too many going south unless for a stocker.

Maybe you could get a few guys together on this site to order in bulk and reduce costs further.parts and shipping?

I'm told the lifters are re-hardened once shaped.

Too bad, they look good. The Canadian/Australian exchange rate is favorable but the shipping would be a killer. Just out of curiosity do they fit sedans? They kind of resemble Tbird headers. My brother in law will be in Wollongong in a month or so.

I'd go with new lifters for insurance. Cams and lifters are too hard to change and expensive when it comes to the difference in cost of new lifters vs. resurface which has a cost as well and thinning the hardness in the process can be a gamble. Isky, Comp cams and I believe Ted sell new USA lifters which should work and are high grade. I would NOT use anything made in China.

He told me they were the same as Saunders after some persistance, as I had previously seen.He also has a selection of stainless pipes and mufflers, including various bends etc.

I will write it up.

Hey CK, can you post a link to Teds info on exhaust ports?


Those headers on fleabay for $249 + shipping seem excellent value, but he does not say what they will fit or where they are made.

What are your thoughts on re surfacing Lifters?

I was just reading some of Ted's recommendations on exhaust ports and not to take away the section over the plugs, which I'm glad because I probably would have rounded them out. Though I am a bit cautious obviously and why I'm asking.

And I now have a greater opinion of the Saunders type headers I was thinking of buying. I guy here in Aust. is making sets in Stainless, good money too. I found them on eBay. Maybe all thru 2 1/2" system from the graphs.

And the inlets is exactly the info I was hoping to receive. However aren't the claims of design regarding the change of direction in the ports to aid in a greater swirl pattern? Though I have read this to be controversial being the restrictive nature of design.
