So ive been in the process of trying to get this manufacturer (STOKER MOTORWORKS) who produces VH45 swap parts (similar to that of Xcessive or Mazworx), to start making headers for s-chassis VH swaps. Bring us more options and address some issues the current market has had. They agreed to make multiple sets for a limited initial run with enough interest/commitment to deem worth it. So they have agreed set up this group buy.
-They are long tube headers.
-Designed in place with all frame clearance issues addressed. No more cutting, hammering, or shimming will be necessary.
-Raw steel with 0.375" main flange, 1.75" primaries, and a 3" collector.
-The rear will be v-band flange, comes with the v-band flanges for exhaust side, v-band clamps, exhaust gaskets, and necessary mounting hardware.
-$500 shipped for pre-sale orders (includes all above items). $550 shipped post-Aug 25th
Ceramic coatings also will be available! (about a week extra delivery time)
-Polished will be +$250 (so $750 pre-sale/$800 post 8/25)
-Satin Black will be +$280 ($780 pre-sale/$830 post 8/25)
THATS SHIPPED!!!!
PHOTOS WILL BE LOADED UP LATE NEXT WEEK! (from date of this post)
This group buy will maintain a price of $500 until they starts production on August 25th. Then the price will increase to $550 and this item will continue to be on sale until the end of production when the last ordered piece has been produced.
Thier website has been updated to show this group buy option also and all information. ill post a link up to see for your selves. Let them know CJ sent ya! :2f2f:

I would like to see how these look prior to purchase. I hope they don't sit as low as the Mazworx set.

pics will be up hopefully soon.... the company got delayed due to them moving shop locations.
they also said the group buy price will be extended and a new deadline would be set once photos are loaded up
the low hanging quality of mazworx is the main reason i pushed for these to go into production with stoker motorworks. thats the most annoying thing to me about whats currently available to use on the market at the moment

Sounds like a plan. I made my own for my old engine mounts but they do not clear with my new ones. I personally don't want to remake them so I am hoping these will be perfect.

man the VH is an idea that sounds good on the internet.... but once its finally installed, i was very disappointed at the lack of power the VH makes compared to a basic KA-T setup. at least now there will be an option that will keep this swap more affordable.

Lol this swap is really affordable if you fabricate everything yourself. The only things I bought for mine was the tranny adapter and the driveshaft. Everything else has been fabricated. I agree that it isn't as powerful as a well built turbo 4 cylinder but for being a stock motor, and available at most junkyards for 175 dollars ill stick with it.

yeah, but all of the tidbits that go along with the swap are what makes it suck... radiator and cooling fans are a PITA, engine fitment sucks under the s-chassis hood, so your either going to have a gaping hole in the hood, or a hood scoop.. :(

production is moving forward but has been delayed due to Stoker Motorworks now basiclly being a one man operation due to his shop help having to relocate due to family priorities.
here is a pic sent to me of the initial draft of the headers. more angled pics and install pics shortly after.
