Forgive my ignorance. While I'm not new to vehicluar mods, I'm finding that the 914 is a bit different.

I couldn't help but notice the header thread that's a few pages back. It shows a number of pictures of some sweet headers that I may not be able to live without. The one I like mose is the Tangerine Header.

As with any vehicle build, one must ask what the vehicle will be used for. In my case, it's a daily driver so defrosting and heating is fairly important. The question is, are there any headers that can have good strong heating?

What header would you all recommend for someone that wants a quality unit that will later support, perhaps, a big bore kit, while still maintaning acceptable defrosting. I'm trying to buy stuff that I can grow into. I'm not afraid to spend $1000 on the good stuff, if I don't have to do it twice.

Thanks in advance

Headers replace heater boxes......Bursch makes an extractor system that bolts to the heater boxes and gives a scavenging effect that improves performance on cars that had the later systems that had cat pipes....but I have told that the stock 73-74 HEs with the stock muffler works the best if you need heat.
