    well, my headers got put on hold for a little because like an idiot I ordered the wrong diameter pipe when I ordered my mandrel bends, the new ones should come today though.
    As for equal length tubes, I'm gonna try as best I can to get them all equal length, it's gonna be tough though. Those tubes on the rear cylinders are gonna be a heck of a lot shorter, I may have to take them on a full 360 degree wrap around to eat up length.
    I think it's pretty important, if your gonna have headers and get the advantage of tuning for the return of pressure waves, you may as well set it up so that they all contribute in the same rpm range.
    Hopefully in another two days or so I'll have some pictures.

    I am gonna do some sort of heat sheild for the brake lines, I set up those lines before I planned on going outside the frame with the headers.
