Good lord man, that was a huge chunk of change back in the bi-centenial year  :eek4:

$250.....What was I thinking??? I found my receipt for my headers and I paid $59.95 for them.

I have headers on the Road Runner. I used the stock manifolds on the T/A

I have headers on my 400. They go to 2.5" duals with and H-pipe and 40 series. I have no clue who makes them but they look like they fit nice.

I have #5115 Hooker Super Comp's on my 340, they fit nice with or without the power steering. Just sent them out to Jet-Hot to get re-coated since they are from 1983. It's cheaper to have them re-coated then buy new ones for $600 plus dollars. I also glass beaded and repainted my original exhaust manifolds and put them on last week.  They look pretty good too, but I know they will be put back in the the box after I get my headers back......

I love headers, there is a lot going for them vs. stock manifolds. Our Chally with the 360 has the el chepo Hedman headers, and on the 72 with the 440 I have 3" Hookers comps., both of these are super low and make me pucker with I approach even road kill  :roflsmiley:. I plan on getting the Schumacher Tri Y for the 440 build in the Dart. Looked them over real close at Nats. and since space will be a premium with the inner fenders I'm pretty much sold on them, but $600.00 for a set makes my ole Scottich blood boil  :roflsmiley: The Charger is stock maifolds like 99%  of the rest of the car.  Good headers aren't cheap, but go price stock hp maifolds at swaps, headers are worth the difference in my opinion.  :2thumbs:
