Marty would be willing to do these if there's about 20 COMMITTED buyers. The cost would be more than the shorties they now make, but final cost? ... who knows for sure at this point.
I'm #1. Anyone else?

I would be interested if they fit better then the SHM Long-Tube headers.

THey'd probably fit better than the SHM since Marty's design has been working for so long. . .and he'd put the R&D to get it right. . .

Since I already have shorty headers from him, I'd be in for long tubes. I'll even give him my car for the fitment, since I've dealt with him personally in the past, and he's a really nice guy that likes our cars!

Hey Lou, it looks like the mod bug is biting you hard these days What would be different power gain wise from a short tube to long tube header? I just need to find out a bit more before committing. Also do long tube headers sound different than short tube? Fern

MAKE SURE you get the best coating you have. Mine have almost rusted through and they were on the car for only one winter.

Sorry, but I'll have to agree.
20 people at what $900 - $1,100? That will be tough.
Good luck though!

im in for sure if the price is right. id like to use a set of headers instead of my stock exhaust with my turbo. it just seems less restrictive that way.id like to know a price range. i wont be needing a coating i can get a "special" top secret squirrel coating that might work better than ceramic. but im very interested.

I hope you meant to say supercharger- because you'd need custom headers for a turbo. TURBO headers, I should say.
