Default Distance between headers

Does anyone know the CC-distance with these headers (between the 4" pipes) on a chevy 454?

I just bought similar ones and need to know if they fit in my boat...

Thanks,

Tomas

Tomas, I don't know what kind of boat you have but if you have enclosed engine compartment,
DON'T EVEN THINK OF USING THESE HEADERS!!! These are drag boat headers only.

There is a big difference between water injected and water jacked headers.

Water INJECTED headers (like the one on your picture) are the cheaper ones used on ski-boats, with water sprayed in to the primary tubes.
Should never be used in enclosed engine compartments.

Water JACKED headers have inner and outer tubes and the water flowing between the tubes.
These headers don't get hotter than cast manifolds.

Hi Swedes!!
Give me a call and I can give you some measures from mine (Stelling). If you bought them from Jesper they are very similar to mine.

Hi seabeach, You must be Torbjörn Sjöstrand from Kalmar.
You said you bought your headers from Jesper.
This is kinda fun, I bought mine from Jesper last week, see thread http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=89624

My friend Sten picked them up for me. I think you know him, he's the guy who owns the other 39' Hi-Tech.

Hi,
No, I asked if Tomas bought his headers from Jesper, I knew that Jesper had 2 pairs for sale. I looked at them last time I visited Jesper, they looked great but I could not manage them. Very close to Kalmar..... Karlskrona.

What brand and model are your headers Tomas?

Hi Reed, Welcome to the swede thread.... I live 2 hours drive from Malmo.

Oops! I think I read your post too fast, sorry about that.

BTW, get a gold or platinum membership, it's worth it!
