[DeTomaso] Really Hot Header

Thought I had all my engine problems behind me but now I got a new one.   

Started running poorly again after about 15min of driving.  Won't idle, backfires and barely runs.   

Try again next day and it starts but 15min later, crappy again.    

This weekend it was really hard to start cold but eventually I got it to run for about 3-4 minutes 

by blipping the throttle a lot.  Shut it off and smelled something burning.  

Opened the back and my left side header was glowing red.   Right side header was normal.  

My IR temp gun showed only 140 on the heads.  Water and oil temp gauges were barely reading.   

Any ideas on what could cause just one side Header to glow red hot so fast?  Thanks, Sean
