Headers

Post by **volvorsport** » 13 Nov 2006 09:58 pm

well , i need one in my hands to see if its possible , and it has been done before !! , the downpipe and system arent that bad, keeping an equal length on the runners will make a good job of it .

I think but not totaly sure that the 360 manifold is the same as 2 and 740's

It looks the same...but...it has castings for a hot air intake shroud, so perhaps it is different in other ways too?

cheers

Not sure if this will help but on my Bronco you can get shorty headers to fit to stock exhaust.
These give better top end rpm and more grunt.

The long headers which involve a lot more hacking and chopping to couple up to stock exhaust give much better torque lower down rev range-mainly used by people who tow big rigs about-this information is for small block V8 so may not apply to 4cyl SOHC.

Just a thought tho'

I think that's a fair point Guv....at the risk of stating the obvious, a 'half header' is probably better than nothing...but a long way short of a true 4-2-1 (especially one which avoids the horrible shape of the 360 PAS DP!).

cheers

I'm pretty sure my exhaust builder would charge very little diffence for a full manifold compared to half manifold. It can be done just needs a car to jig it on. Anyone interested?

PS congrats noticed you have hit the 5000 posts mark

Ouch...quite a milestone

Well the question is how much could you improve on the stock downpipe for a PAS car, as I think it has to remain split if it is going to be possible to physically fit it to the car without removing the engine at the same time

cheers

There is no real way to make a massive improvment due to the limited space available. I should imagine that it will have to split but I'm sure flow can be improved over std.

well thats why i asked for one , so i can get it priced up .

and it has to be said , 2 flanges and some pre bent tube would prove the theory one way or another .

so how much is this full manifold roughly going to cost?

might be interested after i get my 360. 8 days til my test!!!

Can that header be fitted to exhaust system with katalysator?
Also i'd like to know options in payment and delivery to Finland Or do i contact directly to the maker?

little bump

Is this header still available?

Post by **classicswede** » 01 Jan 2009 06:11 pm

If you wnat one making I can get it done. Pas or non pas?

Post by **Frits** » 01 Jan 2009 06:22 pm

I've a left-hand drive 360 which will be running a 2.3 redblock. No powersteering.

What kind of price would it be?

Regards,

Frits

For one like this you are looking at £250
