Hot Rods CHEAP flathead headers - $39

I am NOT associated with this item in any way shape or form. That said, screaming deal on flathead headers:

Amazon.com: Flowtech 12702-2FLT Flathead Ford Block Hugger Headers - Chrome : Automotive

edit: I didn't get any headers but damn did I kick an anthill. Must be one of them influences I keep hearing about

 

@ClarkH

 

I have no idea who makes them but I used a set on a 32 roadster I built. I got mine from Speedway. Only problem was it took 3 sets before I found a set that would fit the block.

 

$39? Order em! Amazon has easy returns if they don't fit. That is really cheap!
How can they even ship them for that?

 

What about fitment, do they change over the years?
I have a 1951 8BA .... needs manifolds ... stock ones suck they have the crossover pipe from left to right.

Just looking at the product specs I do not see what year they fit?

 

I have a set of these. The headers themsleves were fine, but for some odd reason, the fasteners that came with them were metric! I replaced them with the proper fasteners and everything worked out. A couple of the bolts were real tight and I ended up using allen-head capscrews in those holes.

 

If I had a "showroom" flatty on a stand I would buy those in a heartbeat. I might buy a pair anyway and start looking for a block.

 

Dang...I don't even have a flathead anymore. MIght get a set just because.

 

Well I just ordered them ..... hope they fit .... chrome is not my thing would prefer to paint them.
For the price I could not pass it up. .... Thanks to @treb11 for the heads up.

Price with shipping was $52

 

I might be wrong, but they sure appear to be painted (fake chrome) or powder coated. For that price ,You couldn't by the pipe. I'd weld the pipe to the flanges on the inside before using.

Some for the hemi as well.

 

Wanna buy one?

 

I just ordered a set of the hemi headers. I have an extra 331 and the price was too good to pass up.

 

I just bought a couple sets (free shipping with Amazon Prime).................... and I haven't owned a Flathead in 10 years!
lol

 

You sure about the free shipping? I just ordered a set and with Amazon Prime shipping was $7.50.

I think they are chrome but looks like they polished them with a rough wire brush before they were chromed. I saw a fair amount of porosity in some of the welds. For the price, I can fix the welds.

 

It looks like Holley might be dropping the prices (dumping?) on a number of Flowtech flathead headers scroll down the page.

Thanks @joel .... I felt the same way, just no way would ever find that deal again.
Problem is, I have the engine & no use for it ....

My engine appears it was running fine when parked for a bad fuel pump decades ago .... It has issues from sitting for a few decade but should be a easy runner ..... I have it disassembled sprayed with oil sitting next to the Dryer in the garage covered up with a blanket ..... No plans for it, then I order headers for it. ..... I have the Transmission & clutch.pressure plate .... very low miles.

 

Hmm...had to go make sure there weren’t some 331 Caddy headers cheap too. No luck.

 

Just went to order a set for a "stand" flatty and they won't ship to my address! Must be a California thing.

 

You sure about the free shipping? I just ordered a set and with Amazon Prime shipping was $7.50.

 

I was hoping against hope that they would have some for an Olds Rocket, but also, no luck.

 

If @Moriarity was into flatheads he would have bought at least 20 sets by now. But since all his kitchen cabinets are full of ignition wire boxes not sure where he'd store them?

 

I usually subscribe to the "if it's too good to be true, it probably is" philosophy. But damn, at that price, I just took a chance! Yeah, $7.50 shipping. Not sweating that.

 

Free shipping applies to Amazon Prime members. All others pay.

 

I see “0” for your shipping charges?

 

If it’s really a good deal for you, have them sent to me, I can then resend them to you. City and state I live in are listed for you to estimate from me to you.

 

I also paid $7.50 for shipping.
Prime is a product where they automagically withdraw $30 a month from your credit card then offer free shipping to prime members.

Might work for some, not something I want ..... $7.50 to ship a set of headers is not bad.

 

I bought a set a few years back and keep looking at another set for a motor I have setting in the corner. They always seem to hang around that $89 mark regardless of whatever the cost of shipping/price of header combo is. The ones I got are actually pretty good, the welds looked nice, the chrome blued up pretty quick but doesn't seem to be getting any worse. Also seems like maybe I had to enlarge the front holes slightly with a drill but it was a while ago so maybe not....

 

I got 2 pair, which is probably a lifetime supply but I'll hang some on the wall for that price, that is dirt cheap. I had gotten some stainless ones off of eBay for $86 shipped and I thought that was an amazing price but I'd rather have chrome, it'll be more authentic. Thanks for posting this!

EDIT my girlfriend has Prime and I got them with free shipping, but even with $7 shipping that's still dirt cheap.

 

It’s a kinda want, not need thing but I appreciate the offer.
