S&S headers; general header comments

["Rick Kellner" <rfkellner@snet.net>]

The list was able to identify the header from the posted pictures as an
S&S header.  I have found a link to the new S&S header and attached it
below.

If you look at the header and description you will see there is a ball
and socket connection at the collector end that acts as the flex joint.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of flex joint?  Does it
leak?  Is there a better aftermarket flex joint available that I can
weld in place of this one?

The header I picked up has a one piece flange on the end that mates to
the head, the one pictured in the link below appears to have each tube
as a stand alone.  I fitted the header to a spare* 16V head and it does
mate correctly.

Thanks, Rick.

*this spare head does not have any cam bearing caps so this is the first
time it was of any value!
