Re: 8v headers?

["andkat" <andkat@foxinternet.net>]

My first header was a BMS,  they say you never forget your first header,
anyway it was,nt impressive.  Thin walled thin flanges, needless to say it
didn't last too long before it cracked.  Second header was a Supersprint
lasted about seven years before it cracked.  Third header is a Brospeed,
heavy duty mother, but also very heavy in weight.  It's a two piece unit and
I kept blowing the gasket between the two pieces untill I had to brake down
and make a copper gasket.  Have'nt had a problem since.  Though I do wish I
had gotten another Supersprint.
