    Do they make a cheaper set of 1 3/4 headers that will fit a 302 with slight modifications. I read where the 6208's work but I will be heat wrapping some so I don't really want to spend that kinda money. But if I have to I guess I will.

    I got lucky & found a set of those on Racing Junk for $300 in excellent shape & am planning on having them ceramic coated.If you are looking for power,they work great,I know having seen them used on several very fast cars.The other header is Tubular Automotive,which is even more expensive.Unfortunately,when you get up to that size tube you will end up having to spend some money.With the 6208s you will have to do some slight body mods to get them on,but you can make them fit.
