Does anyone have the SBC zoomie boom tubes ?

[Joe-405]

the ones from speedway the boom tubes for SBC sprints.

I am trying to figure out if they clear a t chassis or not.

Call them, they should know....If not, some of our guys here will....I haven't know any Zoomies that interfere with the frames, but thats racing stuff I deal with....unless the motor is way down in the frame. 409T and a bunch of others ran Zoomies I believe, so, they'll weigh in on the subject soon enough....

Go to speedway's site , there's a spec chart which shows the dimensions , if I'm looking at the same header you are ,they are different side to side & awfully close to the engine to be able to use them on a T.

Speedway catalog gives dimensions to headers on one of its pages with corresponding item numbers . I think you would have to extend the tube coming from the head to get what you want.

The $99.99 style look like they will hit the frame rails, the $109.99 ones maybe not. I know the ones from Sanderson will work, but you need to get some good measurements on the others before making a decision. I would also recommend finding a car that has zoomies and listen to them. We have them on my wife's T and they are great in that they are not in the way to burn your leg when getting out of the car, but IMO the sound leaves something to be desired. We have a minimally functioning baffle in each pipe of her 327, and to me, the engine still sounds like a Briggs and Stratton (or maybe that's just SBC ).

You will see a significant drop in torque with zoomies. If you have a top on your T, they will be louder than without a top too. I ran zoomies for about 6 months and went back to the roadster headers with the 20" turnouts.
