Been a while gents... Finally a little progress, albeit nothing fancy:


Sanderson 300 headers modified for the single turbo setup. Turbo will be where the battery was (pass side on non-nailhead '65's). Using a Land Rover Discovery front cover for the better oil pump and more compactness of filter location for crossover clearance. V-band connections for crossover with flex joint built-in as well as flex joint from 2-1 collector into turbo.

wish they were larger.. Sanderson only makes 1.5" primaries and 2.5" collectors for the 215/300/340.. If I wasn't so cheap and lazy we'd make a full new set with 1.75 primaries, out of some $$$ stainless or inconel.. someday with my street race winnings


As you can kinda see, the passenger (formerly driver's) header didn't need any modification other than a v-band. The driver's (formerly passenger's) needed extensive modifications to fit, even around a manual steering box.
