Nice! What kind of headers are you using on this 383? Also what is the purpose of the t's in the heater hoses?

Those are the new "Sanderson" cast headers. They flow like a modern header but last like a original manifold since there cast iron. The top heater hose "T" goes to the radiator. It is a return line from the heater. The bottom hose has a clean-out fitting to help in purging out the old anti-freeze.

That's sexy rusty a 383 must get the tires roast'n. Ha ha I still love the clanky, pingy, throw the rod out of the side sound of a 6.2 tho. Plus averaging 16mpg with town driving on the way to work in a 1 ton pickup is still pretty good.
