Wild Headers

[seawolf]

I took these pictures at Blairs Speed Shop around 68 or 69. Whoever built them was a pro at using a tube bender.

Looks more like a normally aspirated passenger heater.

So, would those headers be tuned or un-tuned?

what's amazing is that they appear to be very symmetrical from one side to the other..... they still look stupid IMHO..... but very symmetrical. :fidget:

To drive with those in Winter, it just might feel like Summer, like you say, makes a great heater...

Isn't Banks the Diesel dude?

he made his cooler look like a license plate? Wonder what the cops think about that? Pretty cool as long as he gets away with it. And no front brakes.

Lots of bad drugs were around in the 60's.

And some Not so bad ,,LOL

Gale Banks made a name for himself in the performance industry before he ever touched a diesel engine. He's always been a master at turbo's.

 

[Youngster]

there was a time when Gale Banks was the go to man on turbos. As the story goes he started with a '64 Corvair Spider in his 1 stall garage. Buy the late '70's he was building one off setups for Detroit. Awesome self taught guy.
