What is the best fitting headers? I want to put a set in the wagon, nothing expensive as it’s just my beater to putz around in.
 
I have used three separate header products:

1) Headman (78050) - that's basically your bare essentials
2) Hooker (5901) - these I still have, overall better build, thicker flanges and pipes I believe, I got these ceramic coated
3) TTI (340BEW2-17835C0) - that's my W2 stuff, the only one that fits around the suspension pieces, expensive but well worth it, also ceramic coated

Not sure what the pricing is like these days for the regular stuff...but I'm thinking you can't go wrong with the Hooker tubes.

I think some of the guys have run the shorty pipes as well, maybe that's an option?

i used TTI with my black car and fit well but to much $ for the wagon. i'll have a look into the hookers
 
Of course you're on the other side of the continent from me. I've got a pair of used, but in good shape Hookers I'd just give you.

....wow, phrasing.....

saskatchewan to michigan is not that far lol 24-27 hrs or 2500 kms lol

if you want to ship them i'll take them off your hands. i'll send you pm you my address for the shipping cost.
 
Best fitting, TTI.
I use a set of Cheap A-Body headers from Summit racing, they work just fine for being $160 option (or they used to be, idk what they cost now) and a set of multilayer aluminum crush gaskets and haven’t had any leaks or complaints. Sure they have kissed a few speed bumps, sure the drag link runs through primary on the drivers side, but so do about all of them outside of TTI.

If the parts were smaller I would. It's just too much of a PITA to find the appropriate box and packaging, sorry.

i looked at TTI just for fun.....yep can't do it!
 
I wish this was a couple of years ago...I had a 'still in the box' Headman tubes here...listed on both Kijiji and eBag for months...NO interest...practically had to beg for someone to pick 'em up...eventually they sold for $150 CAD if I remember correctly (LOL)!
