    Anyone make Lakes style headers for a 289/302 Ford in a Model A? Limefire style. You'd think no one ever stuck a Ford in a Ford before. Hoping I don't have to pay someone $600+ to design a set or build my own. Getting lazy and cheap in my old age.

    Dont be old and lazy, build some. I used the speedway kit, and it was good quality. Its a shame that my workmanship isnt, or they coulda been nice. I just need to clean up the welds. They were easy, and kinda fun to make too.

    I bought mine from Matt at lakeheaders.com and am way impressed with the quality, price and service. He'll take care of you.

    I know they aren't quite the Limefire style... but I have seen some that are go for about $150 on Ebay in the past month or so. Not too many bids on them, just the ones for SBC.

    I agree, Matt is a great guy to deal with. Fast service & quality product. You can buy them welded or tacked. I've bought 2 sets in the last year from him. He also does the U Fab manifolds. DAVE

    Matt is the man. I got a set fully welded with baffle inserts for $350. delivered. They are really good quality and it only took about a week to get them. They bolted right up with no problems and look and sound great.
