Hi all
anyone have any experience with this brand
Thanks

 

Used a set decades ago. Diconnect motor mount on drivers side,Starter needed to be dropped, header slipped into place and attached loosely, then re-install starter, and then tighten header to head. If I remember correctly they were a small tube header (1 1/2 diameter) more for a cruiser vs high out put street/strip type vehicle. I switched to a set of Hooker Super Comps the following year. Fit was much better, as was construction.

 

The original Blackjack header were the inexpensive entry level sets, quality was decent.

 

Agreed, we all used them back in the 70's and 80's. Good for the money.

 

i have some ak5000 on my nova,been on there over 20 yrs.found another nos set now. not even 1 problem putting them on. even found a nos bbc set about 35 yrs ago,still have them in the garage.

 

Still have mine, same AK5000
wall art now

 

From what I’ve heard, Blackjack headers are a good option if you’re looking for something budget-friendly. They were pretty popular back in the day and seem to last a long time.
If you’re looking for more info or want to compare different brands, you should check out themulligans.org. They have a lot of helpful information that might point you in the right direction.

 

My brother had a set back in the day on my 442 and they were there when I bought it off him. I was going to have them Jet Hot coated, but it was cheaper to just order a set they sold already coated so I sold them off. Looked like decent headers though! The Jet hot header brand I now have isn't known to me. I probably knew what brand they were 20 years ago but have long since dropped it out of my memory bank! I asked Jet Hot what brand they would have been when I re-started my resto but there were new owners who couldn't know. They did recoat my headers under warranty so their warranty is good. They look very, very nice now!
