W126 M117 AMG Headers

One of the missing pieces from the AMG 500SEC Wide Body Phönix engine build were the AMG headers. These were removed from the donor and sold prior to securing the vehicle.

Fortunately a fellow pre-merger AMG owner and enthusiast had a set and was kind enough to lend out for the purpose of reproduction.

A premier header manufacture was able to create and produce an exact replica. Jigs are in place for anyone interested in a set.

Any chance you can still make these 12 years later?
