Subject: IML: Headers for Imperials
Premade headers specified for any application
besides Imperial will likely not work. The steering box is in a
completely different place than it is on other Mopar cars due to the longer
nose, and this leads to "complications".
Not to say that
Schumacher hasn't solved the problem (you'd have to ask them), but it's not
likely based on the time I spent researching options, since there
are not enough people putting headers on our cars to justify an
investment by a vendor. - meaning that custom would be your path if
you're going to go that way.
While not as cool looking as
headers, the HP C-body exhaust manifolds were the only option that I was
able to find, and I'm very happy with them - they are a bolt-in solution
without the exposure to cracking and engine compartment heat that you get
from headers, custom made or otherwise.
item 320091994029 on ebay is
an example.
