My buddy sent me an Ebay link of a K10 in our area back home. It had Aluminum Sanderson headers on it. I can't find any mention of these units online, were they really made of aluminum? Anyone seen these or know where I can get the info? Sorry lost the Ebay link, I will try and locate it when I'm done with dinner.
 
prolly someone being stupid.. can't imagine aluminum headers..

i've been to the Sanderson site.. they do all the standards, plain steel, chrome, ceramic and stainless...
 
At one time Sanderson made cast iron headers. They are made similar to a stock manifold, but with much nicer curves and better flow characteristics. I don't think aluminum could take the heat...
 
yeah, they looked like cast pieces but they were ost certainly colored like brushed aluminum. Damnit< ic an't find the ebay ad.
 
Yep, they're nice looking pieces.

they were probably ceramic coated or something that the guy thought they were aluminum. I figured they made them for like a yaer then someone realized, wait aluminum melts at 1200*, doh...
