3rd gen Camaro headers ? Stahl/ACP? Other?

Dragsinger · 11-07-2019, 08:18 PM

Anyone have the ACP headers for SBC? 1 7/8 x 2 x 3 1/2.

Or other header suggestions?

They're the same as Stahl. They're made on the same jig.

Those would be my choice. I wish I had my Stahl headers back. Had two other sets, his were over a MPH and a few hundredths faster than anything else I tested. Made a template of my raised “D” exhaust ports, so he could cut me a custom set of flanges.
After we lost Jere, what I thought was a friend wanted me to send them to him, so they could build a jig for “4th gen” Camaro/Firebird cars. Never got them back, learned he cut them up to build his jig. Did offer to sell me a set of his to replace them.

The Stahl headers did everything correctly. Goof plug access, cleared everything, tucked up close enough to the floor, then never hit the ground. No flat spots on the bottom of primary tubes. Wish I had them back.

You might try REF in Kingman AZ. Have a set of his on my 318 Mopar and thy are works of art...comparable to Mark Lelchook. I’d call both and get their inputs on your combination.
