JBA headers

[Powershift 19]

Anyone here ever tried JBA headers on their '69/'70? I'm looking at their mid-length, 1 5/8", set... with a matching H-pipe.

I have them and they are excellent. Thick, never leaked, hold the pipes tight to the car, and the ball flange is maintenance free too.

 

I did have to ding the LH front clynder to clear my TCP motor mount but this is most likely due to the mount and not the header.

Awesome, thanks!

 

I know they aren't cheap, but I also know cheap cost usually means poor fit, and leaks!

Just put these exact same JBA headers on the 408W that just went in and think they are great, bolted right up with plenty of clearance, sounds great too.

AWESOME!!

 

You guys just made my decision easier! Thanks for your comments!

Hey Brian, if I may interject here and ask in a little more depth......has anyone installed the JBA headers on your 408 Windsor that is tied to a TKO-600 and using the hydraulic clutch? Also, if you have this combo, what heads are you running?

 

Thanks,

My 408w will have AFR 205 heads, along with a Hydraulic actuated clutch, and a TKO-600. None of the parts have arrived here yet.... but, all are on order.

 

Streetking has nearly the exact combo I will be running (351w, TKO-600, hydraulic clutch, and JBA shorties). He's just using different heads (Edelbrock Victor).
