R.
Read it all before.
- 1) Nobody said the headers wont make more power (all other things being equal)
- 2) How much power the headers are likely to add depends on the build and more importantly the cam. There is no way (for example) that headers would make that kind of difference on MY motor because MY cam is designed to make the HP manifolds work.
- 3) that test doesn't take into account the rest of the exhaust system. I've seen a good quality exh system and mufflers make almost .5 seconds difference. How many hp do you suppose that equates to?
......bottom line (as I said) isn't that headers make more power but rather that it has been proven that you can build a HP manifold equipped motor to equal that power level if that's your goal. As I said in my original post, it depends on your perspective.
