Hey everyone. Today i think i gave birth to a monster. My car a 68 mustang coupe, just got a little more breathing room . My specs on my engine before today were a basic 289 block w/ .03 pistons, heads are basic w/ larger chevy valves, with a 260 bump stick i think from comp cams. up top is the stock 2bbl. my car has really been lacking in the power dept. so i decided to start out with a set of headers from flowtech(32102FLT) and toss those rust sticks and 2 inch pipes. So my headers came in on friday so i could wait for saturday to put them up so i got into it and droped out my old ones and man it took me 30 minutes to bolt those headers up! i have power steering and i did not have one pipe touching any where! and these are a GREAT bang for your buck headers. I had to drive form my house to the muffler shop open headers and that was awesome. cant really hear not but i guess it was worth it lol. but ya i got a 2.5 h pipe and 50 series delta flows welded up. i drove this car home and i was like what did they do with my car!! it huals a$$ now. man i am really in pressed with the results. and it just sounds awesome!. i would request these headers to ANY one. in one week my 2bbl is getting swaped with a 1450 performer and 289 perfromer intake. i cant wait for that felling of secondaries!! ill keep you guys informed! thanks for listening to my ramblings.

Those headers look nice! How much did you have to pay for them with the coating?
