here is a set of headers i did for a triumph stag (like a spitfire, but a 4 seater) with a 3.5L rover engine in it.  the old headers were cracked to shit and a terrible design.  no such thing as finding a bolt in replacement since this engine doesn't belong in this car.  the old headers had to be cut out of the car from the exhaust.  they were kinda like a triangle shaped collector.  the whole exhaust had to be re-done, but since i don't have a lift, i had a local exhaust shop i trust do it for less than half of what i'd probably charge to do it.

here is the p/s on the left and the d/s on the right... had to make it around the steering rod.  amazingly both these go in from the top without much trouble at all.

Nice Not seen one of those on the road in years

Rimmer Bros used to have conversion manifolds off the shelf but there are so many different Rover V8 conversions that half of them don't fit right.

Great work though Aaron, glad to see some British Metal on that side of the pond. Can't have been easy making those, they're a twat to work on at the best of times...

Haha, no.  The engine that came in the Stag from the factory didn't belong in the car.  They ALL got swapped to the 3.5 for a reason.
