Those are nice. Do they fit? I had a 455 in a 73 Omega w/stock manifolds-was tight.

Nice design and good looking headers. Maybe when I pick up an Omega, I'll try get some made like yours! What size are they?

BBO Omega Headers

They fit perfectly with stock casting heads. My RR / Wenzler heads have raised exhaust ports which caused some issues. I had to cut a small knotch in the frame next to the steering box. The Headers have 2" primaries and 3 1/2" collectors. The tubes are all within 1" of each other, and the oil filter is very accessable. I did not make them myself. Mike Balf Racing built them. I had to remove the front end of the car, but Mike did a great job.
