Does someone still make "affordable" headers for a 1977 460 1/2 ton truck?

Thank you for your help!

Terry

Flowtech makes "cheap" or affordable headers, but remember, You get what you pay for! Cheap headers are made cheap. Better built headers are going to cost you more but will last longer and give fewer problems. Ceramic or jethot coated headers will last 10 times longer than painted ones because the paint will eventually flake off due to the high heat and begin to rust away.

I bought some Headman's for my '75 2wd 460 and got them for around $140 from Summit. I will tell you though, that they are not nearly the headers that Hooker sells. I wish I would have paid extra for the Hookers!!!! How many times have I said that?!!!

Dont forget Dynomax, they are even cheaper than Heddman. I got them from summit for $99 and they had a $25 rebate. you could even get them in a jet hot coated version for $200.
