i'm thinking of getting a shorty header for my truck now since i'm gonna flatbelly it so i have more options on exhaust..routing wise that is. and was wondering what brands you guys know of that make the shorty im pretty sure heddman does but was thought maybe that wasnt the best quality one i could get. any one?!?

I ain't never seen a shorty header for 22r motor, but in your position, I would find a cheap long tube header used and cut it down to the size I wanted.

dougthorley for a 2wd truck or a early celica
or keep the stock manifold and modify the down pips

I have a thorley header on my truck and it clears the frame just fine. Its actually closer to the floor after I flat bellied the truck. I ended up cutting the flange that came with it off almost to where the 2 tubes become 1 and welded on a 2 1/2" collector..

LCE has one designed for Ftoys

http://www.toyotacatalog.net/M1WebGear/ProductDetails.aspx?PartUniqueID=CDC59188-99C4-4D30-8921-1111EC8F078A

go to pirate and do a search on "thorley headers" and read the good (when they were actuall thorleys) and the bad (now that Doug sold the design & are farmed out by Summit and its a crap shoot on the quality )
then read about LCE's headers, the only thing that you'll see people pregnant dog about is the price, which the summit thorley headers are just as much as LCE's now

but we're talking shorty's right? and thorley doesnt make a shorty. Your choices for a shorty are LCE or Heddman

WTF happened to the price... it wasn't more than a couple months ago they were still $200.... Good thing mine came to me on a parts truck for free....

KYOTA · « **Reply #6 on:** May 10, 2008, 10:51:40 AM »

I almost bought one (Thorley) from Summit untill the price was the same as an LCE

And I take back that Thorley doesnt make a shorty, they do but its for a 3.0

WHITE_TRASH · « **Reply #7 on:** May 10, 2008, 10:57:26 AM »

The price jump is just retarded... LCE makes nice stuff but there is no way I can justify spending that much money on their stuff... I just can't do it...

HOLY COW

talk about a price jump, who do they think they are Exxon

well i have a pacesetter on there now ITS GARBAGE I KNOW BUT IT WAS FREE. but my buddy i think had a heddman. and it went into 4 to 1 in less distance than the pacesetter and what not

i have a downey short tube header....nice enough i suppose.

expensive though

kneedownnate · « **Reply #14 on:** May 12, 2008, 10:51:25 PM »

The nice thing about the downey is you can make whatever down tube you want, so routing it around something else or up high isn't an issue. I have one that I've considered selling if I end up using my nwor header.

I believe those are just re-badged pacesetters

toyotanner · « **Reply #16 on:** May 12, 2008, 10:53:05 PM »

what do you mean whatever down tube you want? like size?

any pics of the downey header?

toyotanner · « **Reply #17 on:** May 12, 2008, 10:54:21 PM »

well pacesetters have like a 1/4 inch flange and are uglier than sin and are long tubes.

toyotanner · « **Reply #18 on:** May 13, 2008, 10:30:23 PM »

anyone have a pic of the downey header i cant find a pic of one

JohnHalladay · « **Reply #19 on:** May 19, 2008, 07:29:48 PM »

i did some fabin on my downpipe and it gave me alot of room under the truck. i would recomend doing that befor the flat belly. My pipe sits above the top of the frame an inch. just a thought.... $Beer Chug\'n$

toyotanner · « **Reply #20 on:** May 19, 2008, 09:03:23 PM »

good idea. on a header or a stock manifold?

JohnHalladay · « **Reply #21 on:** May 20, 2008, 03:32:37 PM »

i have a manifold. but i would like a shorty header too. so once you find on let me know what company mkes it. Danny Manny told me LC makes one but i told him he was a fuc**** F**! lol
ill take a pic of my down pipe soon and post it on here. it not in the truck yet cause i pulled the motor for a warrenty inspection.
