tell ya what Guys..i have found out if your anywhere close to being able to operate a Mig Welder (spot weld) and you are decently mechanically inclined with some patience..order you some straights and j Bends and flanges from Alston chassis and Build your own........

i was scared to death to do this before..then when i got to working from the flanges out..it was nothing....spot welded the joints together then took them to a Friend of Mine who done a nice neat final Tig on them.

(besides its only metal..you can always regrind and start over long as you don't cut them 6 inches short,,and you still can corrrect that with fitting a sleve coupler)..i learn the same way with installing rocker panels and floor pans.

just take your time and make use of a coat hanger or something flexiable to help you with the the geometery of the primaries...

you would be shocked at how little you will have in those headers
sure beats paying lemon $1500 for a set....buy the way lemon has nice headers
