does anyone know of where I can find a set of bbc zoomie headers like you see on funny cars?I'm building a 33 ford and would like to put a set on it.I saw a guy one time at a show that had a set on a small block and had put a motorcycle mufflers in each one.I don't want the short ones like you see on drag boats they need to extend all the way down.thanks,
Bryan
Now here's one of those examples of where terminology really does matter. Do you really mean "zoomies" or are you thinking "weed burners"? Most drag boats I've seen use what ARE zoomies. Here's a link to a builder; http://performanceweldingheaders.com/zoomieprices.htm
These would be an example of "weed burners", though not the only possible shape.
Hey BBB, what happens when ya switch the Zoomies ya linked around upside down, are they still Zoomies(tm)? or just zoomies :LOL: Mebe Weed Zoomers! :LOL:
four27rat, do you mean you want the elbow to go very deap before it's up turn?
just like on a top fuel dragster-all the way down then curve back up
Hey four27rat, I know the pic below is mucho extremo when it comes to exhaust... but isn this kinda what you are looking for? I am actually considering something like this setup for my Linc, only because I haven't seen anyone else do such an outlandish thing and I am a freakin' loon. Tell me what you think...
Here is a picture of a BBB 33 Hiboy with some cool Zoomies... This car belongs to a friend of mine!!
BBB = in this case stands for Blown Big Block not Big Block Bob :)

where did he get those?thats what I've been looking for.does he have mufflers in them?
Yes they do have baffles inside the end of each header tube... These were custom made by a guy that kennyd uses for most of his custom exhaust work... You might e-mail kennyd for more info, he is a regular poster here on CHR...
Hope this helps...

Hi. Can you help me to find a set of SBC funny car style zoomies? Long story about mine. I see that someone steered you to a source and I would appreciate some help. Thanks. Jim in Michigan
He want's 0nes like these! :D
I made my own. ;)

Sure wouldn't be tough to build a set... Some mandrel bent tubes, some straight tubes, a pair of flanges. Tig weld them all together and send them off to the chrome shop or ceramic coating shop.... Best part of building your own, can make them fit the car correctly.....
But the question begs to be answered..... Why a set of weed burners???? Even with baffles they're nothing but obnoxious and would be a guaranteed cop magnet......
