Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 I'm on Super Double Probation , so it takes awhile for the mods to approve each of these post. Any way the first Post shows the headers from the Monogram '66 Malibu. These can be trimmed and turned 90 degrees to give you some great Gasser sty;e headers.

Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Couldn't find any pictures of JoHan's great NASCAR HEMI headers but hears a look at the real thing also a shot at their early cast iron headers that came in the "Flat Box" kits.

Mark Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 The Jo-Han Mopar fenderwell headers aren't 100% right for the wedge engine, as the four ports on each side are equally spaced. They do look good though, other than that. They're wrong for the Hemi cars, because they didn't run those. The Hemi exhaust ports are perpendicular to the ground (or very nearly so), so the headers should go straight down and not go into such a turn right out of the cylinder head. Check pictures of the 1:1 '63 and '64 cars; the '63 and some (but not all) wedge-head '64 cars have the fenderwell pipes while the Hemi cars definitely do not. Jo-Han did do some of the best headers though. The pipes are nearly always round in cross-section unlike some other companies' parts which are flat or misshapen. Jo-Han's Comet and Maverick pro stockers, AMX super stock, the Sox & Martin Barracuda, and a couple of early Seventies Olds 442 kits have the "good" headers.

Greg Myers Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 I did elued to that in the second post, however not in as much detail. The most recent Revell attempt at headers on their Buick Nail Haar '30 Model A is another example of the missept made by the modele companies.

Top ones were ONLY avail on 1964 and 1965 RACE Hemi cars ONLY Bottom ones are MAX wedge only, thing is they were never avail on any production line Mopar. They never got past development / prototype stages. Although there are a few sets out there and Ive even seen one set installed on a car. They look cool as chit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
