    Does anyone make, or have used, exhaust headers for a splasher 6? Or have any info or knowledge of this?

    I'm not sure that all splasher six headers are the same from 1929 through 1947, so you might want to be more specific. I have a '37 one with a crack that might be welded...I saved it after replacing with a better one and would be willing to let it go, cheap!

    Thanks, but actually I'm referring to tube-type headers for the purpose of increasing power, not stock exhaust manifolds. I guess I wasn't clear in my original post. Headers are made for stepdown sixes, but I never heard of them for spasher sixes.

    FWIW I've seen headers on a recently created 35 T race car, and the tubes curved over the top of the block and joined together on the LH side of the engine. If you find photos of the period Kleinig Special you will see Frank Kleinig used a similar system on his 8s

    Junkcarfgann, have sent you a private email re the Kleinig special headers.
