Mid length headers ??
I found these on ebay for $95 "buy it now" - Does anybody have this style headers installed on a C3 ? It seems to be kind of a medium lenght ??? Would these fit my edelbrock aluminum heads ?

These may work, but I wouldn't bet on it. They appear to sweep straight back toward the firewall/floorboard. Corvette headers usually drop straight down from the center of the engine.JMHO
I would like to have a set of mid length headers for my car. It seemns all that is available is either the block hugger or full length that are not lowered car friendly. I may make a set from a full length set one of these days. jim

These are very interessting because of the 3" collector that could be connected to 4" sidepipes.... that was my thought ...
I currently have shorties with a 2.5" collector and thought with a 3" collector I'd get a lot better flow.
Long tubes are too far towards the rear to connect to sidepipes, I do not like the idea of a 180 degree bend and then out to the fender... this would heat the floor panel too much - it's already very hot and toasty at the feet ...
I guess I'll take some measurements to see where the collector would be located, do I need oval or "d" style headers for edelbrock heads ??
Thanks
