JBA Shorty headders for 05-08 5.7 AWD, silver-coated

**Gabe** · 10-15-2012, 05:09 PM

EDIT 10-25-2012: SOLD !!

For sale I have a used set of JBA 1964 shorty headers, silver coated.

These were installed on my AWD 2007 Charger R/T 5.7 Hemi, and I do not know what other applications they'll fit.

They were installed March 2009 and removed earlier this year after the engine had an unfortunate valve-seat incident which took out a piston and did some other damage. (The damaged head can be seen in another thread of mine on here somewhere)

Looking for $325 including Paypal fees and shipping to the "lower 48" states.

Shipping elsewhere can be discussed via PM's

Thanks for looking

Hey Gabe, good luck on the sale man! I'd offer up but I just put some Thorley's on mine that where used. Had to have them coated but it is all good. Did these crack at all at any weld? The Thorley's where horrible for this and I had to have 3 welds repaired prior to installation. I take it they salt them roads in your area? Man... what I wouldn't give for a set that doesn't crack out on the welds. Mine have since done it again after installation. My garage stinks when my car idles out there.... yum, like two stroke without the second stroke.

As far as I know there are no cracks. I had no strange noises (like exhaust leaks easily heard on accel).

They do have some rust on them obviously, but the headers themselves are good.

Good to know Gabe, my Thorley's are junk. Something in that steel horribly expands and contracts and they just keep getting leaks right at the block.

Knowing the JBA withheld your driving habbits

helps me out... Just kidding, those Youtube videos only prove you drive like the rest of us

I am planning on replacing my set up with the full JBA and was curious just what the parts looked like after a few years of use. Not bad at all other than a little corrosion. That's fine, I have my stuff coated privately at RUKSE in Salt Lake anyway.

TTT and good luck with sale! Here's to another good sale from a good dude!
