Patriot H8412-B Headers

[AOCUSNRET]

I have a set of Patriot Headers H8412-B that I purchased a couple of years ago that I am just now getting around to installing. The passenger side seems to point inward more than the other side. Has anyone experienced this with this brand? I was expecting them to be point straight back. If anyone has these installed on their car that could share a pic or two, that would be appreciated.

Thanks all.

I cannot provide any useful info on that set of headers, but a long time ago, this was discussed, as part of a good overall engine build on this forum. For what it’s worth:

At least you might ask the originator on the recommendation if he has experience, if he’s still around.

AOCUSNRET,
I have Patriot H8414-B on my 71fb-Cleveland 4V with PS and they fit well with Toploader/ Tremec TKX with stock bellhousing and C4.
no ps bracket needed.
The only odd thing is the rh header does point 15 degrees inward.
I did have to purchase a 15 degree mandrel bend pipe to make my X pipe work well.
They don't hang too low and I am very pleased with them.
Been on my car for about 5 years now and no rust.

Thanks for the replies. Just looks a little odd to me. I am having a local shop put the exhaust on. They have been in business for a long time, so I hope that they will make it work and look correct.
