Forgot to put price, they were $1200 asking.  They are now sold.

Due to funds required for alternate project I am selling my never used, never been on a car Jack Myers Headers.

Great, I'd buy a hand full.

Got any pictures of it with a grey motor and the blower?

No sorry

Thanks Alex.

From one of those links (May Calder meet), I think Martin's corvette-powered humpy was later named Shaker.

12.1 from a grey, even a meth-slurping blown one, seems odd to me (I could be wrong though). When I look at how much effort Rieke has put into his blown FX, with slower results, it doesn't add up. The only photos I have seen of the Crater Critter motor (with the Marshall huffer and triples) are on a red motor. I suspect the 12.1 story has been confused somehow over the last half century.

Crater ran the blower.  I know the guy who owns this car, the engine and the blower.  Not a confused story :)

A rail with a grey ran 11.49. article herer:

It really sucks half the images don't load any more :(

I'd like one as-well.  I have the manifold not the badge.

The early ones had a wide belt.  I forgot what models exactly where it swapped.  I did not think you could repair them but you can buy new ones.  I think I have both at home I will take a photo side by side tomorrow for you.

The other one (not the LYN) looks like early SPECO which had the brand cast in sunken font, unlike the later ones with SPECO emblazened in raised font.
I have a set of the early specos that came as a set with long header pipes and two into one muffler.

I thought it was the other way round.  Learn t something new.  The other one is back one for the set with the big Speco lettering popping out.  I guy I know bought that one ( speco ) the Lyn one is still for sale.

Are your Speco ones the one with just basically  "SPECO" stamp with L and R on the respective header?  Can you post a pic?

It's a very nice cover.  My friend has Triple Stromberger manifold that is Klieneg.

That was an old post Paul  ;D.

At the bottom of the photo below is a set of Lyn cast iron four-into-two exhaust headers to suit Holden grey motor. These headers have a matching Lyn-branded rocker cover and show good port size. John Brown purchased these headers at a Footscray (VIC) swapmeet in the mid 1990's. The rocker cover is shown in the centre of the second photo.

I bet that was the Chevy club swapmeet in Footscray.  I'd have been there with dad I would have been between 10 and 18 years old.  Those swaps were where the market gardeners sold fruit and veg, I can still remember the smell.

That is very nice side plate.  If you have the time are you able to take some more photos for me.  I have a post over at the FX forum gathering what info I can.

These maybe them, or similar, I have them saved as LYN HEADERS, but more than likley LYNX HEADERS

They are indeed LYN headers ( not Lynx ).  Here are some pictures of a LYN Tappet cover:
