[DeTomaso] Tommy Hodges 180 degree headers

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

Finally got the new headers ceremic coated and installed on the engine. The workmanship and fit are perfect. 

Tommy mocked these up (he's done a bunch of these 180's in the past) on another Cleveland engine with the same 302 high port heads that was already in his shop which eliminated the need to take the Pantera to his shop. 

After we got the engine back in the Pantera we set Tommy's tacked up 180's on the engine and marked one tube that needed to move an inch away from the tall Ford Motorsports valve covers.  Gave them back to Tommy and he finished them a week later. No pictures handy but if you have seen Bob Benson's 180's that Tommy also fabricated the only difference between our two sets is I went with 1/2" larger collectors.  AJ should have some photo's posted in a couple weeks.  

Give Tommy a call (714-562-8664) if your interested in 180 degree headers. He does great work and has a great attitude.
