RE: aluminum headers

Heads or headers? I'm pretty sure all the headers are made out of some type of steel...

RE: aluminum headers

According to the Pacesetter web site, all of their headers are made of steel, with various types of coatings. Aluminum tubing is not suitable as header material because it will melt.

RE: aluminum headers

Thank you Pete. jdelag, Hooker doesn't make headers for the 3.8. Force Fed Fabrications makes long tubes (pretty ones too), RKSport makes some headers, and Clear Image Automotive does as well.
