I'm looking for original drawings and specs for the formed stainless, two piece, 3 into 1 headers. Any tooling would also be cool. :wink:

Any help or direction will be greatly appreciated. I posted this before in the maintenance hagar as well but maybe here will find some dark corner of wisdom that holds the answer. 8)

Steve: You might check with Jamie Treat, as he has all the Fairchild drawings and the exhaust system might be in them.

Here's Jamie's info...

Jamie Treat
Aircraft Restoration & Repair
303-304-7937

Jamie is pretty active in the Fairchild Club and does a lot of work on them. I'm oretty sure that he either has or knows someone that has the drawings for both the two piece and the one piece exhaust for the Rangers.
