    has anybody run the bassett style through transom headers on an enclosed engine compartment? My guess is that they would create to much heat in the engine compartment.

    Actually, Paul Bassett quoted me $3700 for a set to fit my 455 Olds. I think they are available for Ford or Chev for $2700 per the Bassett web site.

    Dang!!!
    You know there are about 5 gazallion people with 1970's jets running with leaky and restrictive logs (like me) that would love to swap out the exhaust if they weren't so damn expensive!!!!

    Yeap... all of the jacketed headers are outrageously priced.
