Mom has Alzheimer's among other things.
I have discussed the headers idea with some race, and boat builder friends and they love it and agree that it will work. Since I had plenty of time to "think", I also have an idea for "help" not to eliminate, but certainly reduce cat blow overs, and a "cushioned" seat, (But that darn Mike at OL is doing it already.) I have to keep my ideas secret I guess. lol. But it's ok, Mike is a friend so more power to him.
The headers will come to life again after the holydays. (Mom and Dad will probably be in nursing homes), but I had to do what I had to do. Sux for me, but oh well.

why couldn't they be chrome finished on the outside? they leak from the inside out... if you make them out of stainless they could be polished, if you make them out of almost anything else they can be chromed or anodized....

Thanks Rat, but she is beyond that. Headers may be polished, chromed or painted as an option, but that would add to the price. Hell for the right $ I gold plate them for yaaaa.
