I just bought a set of Fiero 2.8 headers and I'm just trying to figure out what manufacturer made mine.

I know Sprint, WCF and Trueleo made them, but none look like mine.

Are there any other manufacturers that made 2.8 Fiero headers.

I'll try to get pics of mine soon.

Thanks

There was someone making shorty's that were called KFG headers.
They looked like this:



Here is the thread where he talks about them:

https://www.fiero.nl/forum/A...030819-2-031233.html

Although some complained that they had a cracking problem:

The FOCOA's were a long tube set. I don't think they had a shorty set.

Well maybe they aren't shorty headers haha.

They look like FOCOA headers

Heres a few crappy cell phone pics, I'm having them sandblasted and hi temp painted. I'll have to make a new x-over though, the old one was header wrapped and ended up rusting badly. Unless I can buy a new FOCOA x-over somewhere








Thanks for the help guys.

Buy the Trueleos. The design is similar, IMHO.
And they have regular header flanges instead of the marmon clamps. (A + in my book.)

Those are FOCOA headers...

BTW, Race-tech / the fiero shop outside Toronto sold the same set years ago. That's exactly what they looked like when it was listed on their old web-site.

They might of came from there since I see your from Canada.
