Ok KLOWNS, I need a little help,I can't find the right type of headers thur R & M of Maryland where I got the rest of the parts so I figuredI would ask here for some help,I need a set of over the frame headers,that are for a FLATHEAD like on the car in the pictures,this is what I have to build for a friend now,any help in finding or if you have some would be GREAT,I have $$$$ or parts,Thanks,...... .................................Chief

I've seen something like that someplace, I'm sure... Where would be an unfounded wild guess at best. However, scratching up a set wouldn't be a giant task compaired to some things I've seen done. The hardest part would be finding/making that fine taper primary tube itself. Alclad would take care of the chrome just fine.
I might have remembered where, of all the odd places, I may, MAY mind you, seen these. If there's a place that sells Pinewood Derby cars and accesories, there may be a set in there cast in potmetal. Worth a look.

Chief, try looking in an AMT '32 phantom Vicky kit. There are headers in it like you need, but you'll have to modify them to make 'em work. It's a great starting point.

Chief, I found what your looking for. It's the headers on the Black Force Kit.

If I remember correctly the headers in the Blackforce car are rather big, the headers in the Phantom Vicky kit are closer in size, but have four pipes coming from the engine, and Chief needs three, and easy fix!!!

Yea, but with a little twicking they might work. He would need to take off about 3/8's of an inch off in an angle to match it. It might work cause it has the three pipes already. maybe ...maybe not.
