I had e-tops on mine, 32 1/2" centers.... you had to jockey them into position but they worked and were very tight...

I'm running Stainless Marine Gen II's with custom 4 1/2" tails now. The Gen III's unfortunately wouldn't fit, even after the flanges being machined.

Hardin will also build you a set to fit.

thanks for your response. seems as though they might be a tight fit but should work. i guess i'll find out soon. after reading young perf. thread i am a little leary about the collecter area. was the collecter area a problem for you? looks like if i'm lucky i'll have maybe at most 3/16 to 1/4 inch max between the tuubes. know i am concerned in regards to the flange though. any info. on this would be great.
thanks for your help.

I'm probably not the right person to ask my opinion on stainless steel headers, my headers had to be fixed every other season.

I highly recommend installing a drain tube so when you shut down the engines it automacitally drains them down. All it takes is a little 1/8" hose.
