    Headers for my 454 in a 72 NOVA

     



    Hello gents!
    I am putting my new 454 in my Nova this week end. I have not purchased my headers yet. I will be putting a fiberglass front end on the Nova and have been looking for a set of fender well headers for the application. No luck. While looking around I saw headers made by Dynatech 740-59310 - Dynatech SuperMaxx Engine Swap Headers. They have 2-1/8 primary tubes and appear to look OK from the pictures. They are not fender well headers but I have just about given up on that idea. Does anyone have any experience with Dynatech? I do not have an issue buying Hooker Super Comps. I was just wondering about the Dynatech stuff.

    Thorleys are 14 gauge tubes and 3/8" flanges. A fellow can always find lesser quality for less money Denny.

    Thanks for the input guys. I did not put the BBC in the car this past week end. I think I may be nuts but I decided to replace the stock front suspension with a unit made by Checkered Racing. They are close to home in Spencer Indiana. I have converted the stock unit to disc brakes and they have only a few miles on them. My son keeps telling me to just get the car on the road and make it better over time. Maybe he is right. Like I said maybe I am nuts!
