Headders for GM fast Burn Headszulater91 05-01-2003, 05:22 PM Anyone know where i can find shorty headders for the gm fast burn heads that will fint in a 3rd gen camaro. i have long tube headders but a very tight fit. thanks Jim85IROC 05-02-2003, 10:44 AM the fastburns don't require unique headers. Any shorty headers designed for a thirdgen will fit. zulater91 05-02-2003, 12:17 PM the heads are d-port heads i didnt think any shorties will fit jms 05-02-2003, 06:15 PM I have a set of FastBurns (not yet mounted on my 409-400 plus .040) and a set of 1-3/4" SLPs (already on my '88 GTA). The SLPs are not truely 1-3/4". Measured across the flange opening they are 1-3/8" (although the tubes are 1-3/4"). I will be spending some time "porting" my headers to fit my heads when I get ready to put the combo in the car. True, the FastBurns are D-Port. And if you slap on most any header without checking the opening, you will have your exhaust coming out the port and running into a wall. Not good. jms JCZ28 05-02-2003, 07:37 PM Yea, any header made for a third gen should work! In fact, I have some headman ceramic coated shorty's (1 5/8") for sale. $200 neg + shipping. Pm me if interested! EyE_RawK_ZeeE 05-02-2003, 11:14 PM i'll sell mine for $8000.00 zulater91 05-03-2003, 01:07 PM I don’t know what to do I have a set a hooker long tubes ceramic coated but will that work. I had them installed but the headers were hitting the frame and I would have to relocate my knock sensor. And if I get shorties would I have to port them to size because I want it as free flowing as possible because that’s why I have headers in the first place right.

Both my 1 5/8" and my 1 3/4" are just fine. jms 05-05-2003, 09:19 PM I'm a stickler on such details. The flange openings were considerably smaller than the actual inside tube diameter. When I swapped from the Edelbrocks to the SLPs, I seemed to gain little, if anything on my 5.7 '88 GTA. Of course, I had ported the flanges of the Edelbrocks by grinding out their poor excuses for welds. My ported-flange Edelbrocks were actually larger at the opening than the non-ported SLPs I have on now. Tubes, of course, were smaller on the Edelbrocks. However, the SLPs will be a match for the FastBurns when I get finished with them. I can't stand giving away "free" horsepower. Just picky, I guess. jms zulater91 05-05-2003, 11:08 PM so what size primary do i need for those headers irocz8957 05-06-2003, 08:50 AM any shorty headers for a sbc should fit! TheGreatJ 05-06-2003, 08:59 PM Originally posted by irocz8957 any shorty headers for a sbc should fit! No, you need 3rd gen specific headers. Generic shorties won't make it past the subframe. | ||
