Are you implying that old people drive slowly? Define old? It's more like Jaguar owners drive their S-types majestically. Speed can be very fast at times....

A lot of owners would have been interested in headers if a good cost effective set was available. (Too expensive versus the power gain and trouble to install)

Cone Killer!!!

That is a great picture too.

And I am most likely older than almost everyone on here so it was directed at myself as well.

Of course I still don't know why I only get about 15K miles out of my rear tires?? Must be that STR disease.

What would be a good price?

No cones were injured in that run.

all the way around... :-)

I want to see a picture when you get a cone stuck under the car and complete your run anyway.


I have made some long orange skid marks that way!

Why bother, you FUBAR'd that run anyway. There are more runs to be had.

It was established in another thread that the Stainless Works headers for the Lincoln were too small for the S/C engines & would have actually restricted the exhaust flow.

Can't find the thread now, there's been so many about headers over the years...
