I'm not done with my headers yet, but so far things are going well. The biggest problem that I have is one of my own making. I want true equal length tubes, unlike the vast majority of what's out there, so I've got to figure out how to make a 12" tube fit in a 10" space.....

If you go with the standard direct routing for each tube it's alot easier. Don't let the round tube/square hole thing hold you up, just hit the tubes with a ball peen hammer until they fit, not very difficult, my six year old helped.

If Dan's tubes are pre bent, all you need to do is bolt/prop the side pipes in place and through trial and error figure out which tubes fit where. I started with a pile of U bends and just cut and welded them into the right shapes. Many simple steps that end up with a complicated looking part.

Good Luck!
