Re: 1 7/8 headers? what is available?
CANTONRACER: I bought a nice set of AFR 210's and upon recieving them I noticed something about my Hooker LT's...the flange opening was 3/10's of an inch to narrow on the exhaust ports.
So I bought some Kook's 1-3/4" stepped to 1-7/8" stainless headers which fit fine.
Pitfalls for me...My Canton oil pan and the low pressure sensor...the sensor is gone. The way my TCI flexplate shield and the headers come down by the drivers side made it impossible for any oil filter I could find to fit. I had to get an oil relocation kit.

When I had my Hooker LT's I measured the flange and it had 1.65" height X 1.32" width opening.
When I measured my current AFR 210 exhaust port I have 1.70" height X 1.62" width.
3/10"'s of an inch I would imagine it would hurt performance.
The Kook's are almost dead on.
