Hi To All, Jeff Miklas sent 2 great photos of how the Special F support brackets were done. The pictures were added to the web site below: http://gallery.me.com/awrdoc#100118&view=grid&bgcolor=black&sel=0 One is of Gregg Zieglers 300F Special and one is of Wayne Graefens 300F Special. They are both of the drivers side. Jim Bartuska has both a J/K and Special F header from the same side and will be sending photos. When I get them, I will add them to the web site. Thanks, Tony Hi Don, Carl, Gil & All, Carl Bilter has provided us with some pertinent diagrams from the article referenced by Don. ³The excellent article about exhaust systems by Dale Burkhardt appeared in Vol. X Number II & III of the Club News (Winter 1984 and Spring 1984). The article included numerous illustrations as well, including the F special headers, which are different than the J/K as Don noted. The F special headers are also noted to be the same as the rare dealer or field installed 62 super stock packages.² (By Carl) I have updated the web site with these pictures and an enlargement of a factory looking exhaust port cap in the mystery blue header. http://gallery.me.com/awrdoc#100118&view=grid&bgcolor=black&sel=0 Anyone know what the mystery blue headers might be for?

X3 NO, NO, NO. F special exhaust headers did not have provisions for exhaust heat from the headers. They used hot water to heat the area under the carbs. I have pictures to support this. Gil, do you remember which old club news had the article about exhaust manifolds? I know I have it, but don't remember what issue. I think there were pictures there too.
