1956 Chevrolet Long Tube Big Block Headers
I bought these new in 1995 and ran about 1000 mikes on my 427 before pulling the motor and going small block. I can't remember the maker but I do remember they were pricey.
I believe these fit 55 , 56 and 57 Chevrolet cars with Big Block Chevy Engines but check a good parts book or person to be sure.
They have surface rust from hanging in the barn but a little clean up and a can of High Temp paint and they will be nice looking again.
1 3/4 tube , 3 inch collector
They are long tube and do help create a good bit more low end torque and a sound shorties can't make.
There is one dent on the front tube , Drivers side where they just wouldn't clear the motor mount. Very small and I took a picture of the spot.
A nice solid pair of headers that will let you stuff that big block in your tri five.

New Jaguar XF R-Sport is the start of more R-Sport models from Jaguar
Wed, 26 Feb 2014The Jaguar XF R-Sport (pictured) adds sport looks to the saloon and Sportbrake The big news from Jaguar for the 2014 Geneva Motor Show is the arrival of a barnstorming XF Estate – the Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake – with its 542bhp supercharged V8. But also heading for Geneva is a more lowly XF that might not grab the headlines but will probably do more for Jaguar’s bottom line than the XFR-S – the new Jaguar XF R-Sport. Available as an XF saloon or XF Sportbrake, the XF R-Sport is Jaguar’s take on stuff like BMW M Sport and Mercedes AMG Line (but without any power or suspension tweaks) and is aimed at owners and drivers who want the sporty looks of cars like the XFR but want it powered by something more prosaic.
