Default Stahl longtube 4-2-1 header 1.8L

Letting this header go. I had Jere Stahl build me this header in 2013 for my PTE program. I asked him for a 1.8L header that would make as much low-end and mid-range torque as possible, and he knocked it out of the park. My 1952cc stock-stroke, stock cams, pump gas nationals motor made an SAE-corrected 145wtq on a Dynojet with this header. I've never seen a similar combo (stock crank, stock cam, pump gas) make more torque. It is a torque monster that gives up almost nothing on the top end.

Outlet is 2.5". It will not bolt up to any OEM or aftermarket catback, so expect to build your own test pipe. Fitment is perfect and installation is surprisingly easy, given the complexity (it disassembles into 7 individual parts).

It has seen better days aesthetically but all of the corrosion is cosmetic and would come out with an hour, some WD40, and some steel wool.

I paid ~$1200 to have this header built. Such is life at the pointy end of a nationally-competitive race class. I would keep it but I don't foresee actually using it ever again. Asking $375 shipped. Fastest way to get ahold of me is by clicking the "Email" link in my post signature.

I'm really proud of myself for not impulse buying this. Hell of a deal!
