    Can anyone tell me what kind of headers I have? they have no tags or stamped markings on them...flanges that bolt to the heads are singular per tube, not the one piece commonly seen on others.
    I have looked on-line and found none like them.
    Any help would be great...and thanks in advance!

    They look cut to me as well. Notice the flange shape. Its not consistent from one to the next.

    Here are some old Black Jack headers that were on my first Maverick for comparison. Note the one-piece flanges. Hooker 6901s look similar.

    They look like Headman, or Hookers (they are pretty much the same), someone cut the flange.

    Yes they fit very well and appear to have lots of room for shift linkage to go thru.

    and I don't think they were cut, if so someone did a very good job cutting the as they are symmetrical on the flanges for both sides, I will try and get better pics tomorrow.
