Looks to me like the whole header runs forward, towards the alternator area, then up and around bolted directly to that plate bracket thing?
Definitely would be worth an installed pic. Welding onthe tubes looks good though. One of you west coasters needs to check this out

You would lose so much heat from those super long tubes, I'd think not would spool even slower than stock

Looks like they cut the cast iron flanges off and welded or brazed them to ss tube, seems it would crack early and often.

Hmm that's not too far at all!

typically those flow better than the log manifold does and if your worried about heat loss just wrap it in DEI exhaust wrap.

I think this is Shredator's setup.
