I am looking for a set of 914-6 headers as my theory of turning around a set of 911 headers works on one side, but not both.......... Anything out there FS? Or sources in addition to Bursch.

size IS important ...What are you looking for
1 1/2
1 5/8
1 3/4
Really should be sized to engine

Best for the price is MSDS. He also gives a 914 discount. He has an ad in the member vendor section. For a 3.0 you should run 1 5/8"
I ran his headers and muffler back in the day with my 2.7. Sounded awesome!!! Marty no longer makes the mufflers.

very pleased with their headers...and he's local for p/u

List price on the MSDS is $130 more than the Bursch and I don't see any advantage. I don't know how much of a discount the folks at MSDS give but if it is over $130 I would consider it. If not, I see no reason to spend the extra dough.

Also, I would do some studying about which headers will work best for your application/desires before settling in on a size.

Thanks to all for the input.

This is a close-to-final item to resolve. I talked to Bursch in Pasadena and they make a set for around 6 bills. Any of the sizes are available and this is a build-to-suit and they recommend 1&5/8 for a 3.0 with carbs - As Steve's experience accounts for.

Now to go rob another bank......................

I see heat in your future Forrest.

I recently bought set of Bursch through Ecklers and they did not fit......Bursch was playing games with " did you do this and that " ...send pictures of why not ........etc etc etc
I finally told Ecklers I bought from them and it was up to them to handle and not pass off Bursch's BS on me....
Net result is Ecklers treated me right and took back......While I understand manufactured products can always be "wrong " it is how the company resolves the problem that makes it a good or bad supplier. As far as I am concerned Bursch F'd me around so my dollars wont go there again.
MY 2 cents

One huge reason among many that I would choose msds. Marty -the owner, is a member here and has always done right for world members.

+1 for MSDS
Running Marty's 1.625" on my 2.7

Thanks for the insight fellas. I am now understand you have to watch out for folks that sell ill fitting headers......... and seats

Those look like jury rigged 911 headers.

as i recall - Stoddard's had similar poor-fit problem when they intro'd their new heat exchangers a couple yrs back - last i heard, they fixed it


anybody looking to buy - here is a set i have FS that do fit - jet-hot coated, "euro length" - 1-5/8 - (got 'em from Byron a couple yrs ago & gave up on race-car project)
