You'll want to use 3/8" flanges for strength, WOT-TECH store sells them.
1 5/8" primaries. Ideally would be equal length, and if you can fit it, long tube. I think it was something like 32" works out ideal but it's been a while so I'm not positive.sigpic New 2010 project (click image)

Search around for posts by SuperDave, he posted up pics of his long tubes he made for the cavalier, I think in the Beretta/Corsica Header thread..
EDIT: Here http://60degreev6.com/forum/f96/proj...headers-t44375
Lots of photos there. Not sure how the firewall is in a Lumina, but the other stuff will give you an idea.Last edited by IsaacHayes; 01-01-2010, 02:30 PM.sigpic New 2010 project (click image)
