Originality / Re: 68 Z28 with factory supplied headers ?
« on: March 06, 2010, 01:46:36 AM »Headers with AIR fittings do not sound like day 2 mods to me but Day 2 is rather up to the owner. Burned off flat black paint with plenty of rust is what they usualy looked like
The more "period correct" stuff you have the better in my opinion when you go for Day 2. I run some Cragars once in a while but keep the stock manifolds, chambered exhaust and smog system (because I have it). A complete stock engine looks cool to me with the hood open. I have tried a set of Hooker Super Comps for a time but they did not add much for my combo so I swapped back to stock. The factory style chambered exhaust is holding me back so headers are more trouble than they are worth in my case. My car was originally equipped with chambered exhaust so it has to stay that way as far as I am concerned. It is definately a conversation piece.
Good luck what ever you decide to run.

I agree original is best. Everthing on my car except the headers and exhaust are period correct. Since I already run headers I'm going to saty with it, however the old Hookers are leaking so I need a new set. So, I figured I'd go with something that looks similar like what was available like the 68 factory headers.
