Header pics

Can i see pics of your best head
ers. lol.
Lets see what you guys have to show off. lets get a nice collection of them all ,from all angles , so that i can compare the primary, collector, and tail lengths.
I heard from a vintage racer last week. he won the sesaon in florida with 2 kz's. 1 had a Kerker, and 1 has a Bassani. he says they make the most power? he doesnt think the Yosh's cut it.
What do u guys say? any dyno proof out there? before and after? Who makes the best pipe?
lets put together a thread worthy of saving.

Man. sorry to hear about that snow Tim. That sucks. things are starting to warm up here now. i saw a few bikes out yesterday.
I would love to compile a list of headers with there pics and dimensions. i need primary ,collector and end lengths and diameters. from this we can make an educated guess on witch pipe will support the your desired build , best.
Some time when u find time, i would appreciate any info you can supply.
Why do u say the Wolf rocks the Kerker? this is why i want pipe dimensions. so u can get an idea of why 1 is better .
Ive heard about pipes that rock, but without some # we don’t know why. did pipe A, match your motor combo better than pipe B? or was it just better?
some like the sidewinders are more obvious.

Those are great looking headers, has anyone just welded stock headers into a 4into 1?? I dont have much money and will be wrapping the headers anyway so i figured i might give it a try.
KEEP THE PICS COMING, I NEED IDEAS
P.S. if anyone has an old set of 4 into 1 that would fit a 83 KZ1100 LTD id be interested, can be rusted or scraped up

apparently i also have a denco as well i couldn't for the life of me remember who made a left side exit race pipe until now and as far as measurments go i'm a thousand miles away from all but 2 of my pipes and they are on bikes so i'll have to pull them off this weekend and get the measurements for you.

Thanks Keith, and John.
That denco looks like it has long primaries.
Kieth , does the V&H have to be removed for an oil change? it reminds me of the race Kerker.
anyone have a good pic of the Kereker race pipe?
