I am looking at the Bursch headers for $399.
Any good?

Racer's group has some for $500ish and up.

I'm listening... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

The money factor is a concern, however I understand most good systems ( headers and mufflers ) run about a grand.

I have made all the mistakes.. why let other people make the same mistakes ??

I have been down the small 6 route... sold the car. It was anemic and almost a complete waste of time/resources. I should have continued to save and save for the 3.0. I didnt listen to my elders at the time either...

Drive or ride in a well prepared carbed 3.0... there will be no question when you get out of the car. I have 4-5 factory 2.0/2.2 9146 guy's wanting 3.0/3.2's for their cars. Bag/tag the stocker and install a real daily driver engine.

Why don't we just pull a head and measure things? Quick and easy.

didn't see your smiley so i don't know if you're kidding ...

pulling a head in a 911 is neither quick nor especially easy - assuming you want also to put it back together ... for instance - most people who haven't done one yet don't have the 46mm crowsfoot wrench in their box ...

Are details available on the web for the European Racing Headers ? I have a small six too, and it could use new headers too.

The type # is by the rib of the oil sender....it will read 901/XX, 911/XX or 930/XX.....

I have used Bursch and the European ones.....Bursch rusted pretty quickly.

Since they are basically worthless, I am going to set up a website where you guys can fill out a form and have those early sixes hauled off free of charge. Who's first?
