GT6 GT6 Headers

You'll most likely need 6-3-1 "extractor" design unless you're racing the car, and it's a good idea to get stainless steel for longevity. And, a stock exhaust system may negate most breathing benefits gained by fitting headers, so get a good system to go with your header.

The British pound exchange rate is fairly good now, if shipping doesn't kill the deal. Canley is a good bet, maybe Rimmer Bros.

SpitBits has headers, too, but I haven't checked recently. I'd check with Nigel at SpitBits first.

Let us know . . .

If you are handy and have a mig, you could make your own(out of stainless). You could follow the dimensions from G.Thomas's book. Do a search for SPD exhaust and you can find almost all the parts you need. You can make one better than just about any that are available commercially. My carbon steel one cost me less than $100 before sending out to be ceramic coated. If you build a carbon one, you can just gas weld it.

ps-I used some house pipe insulation with a heavy wire in it to figure out the basic routing.
