What kind of heafers would gain the most HP. I will also be going to a 3" Mandrel bent system. The engine was on a dyno and made 650hp and 620 torque. If that helps. Thanks for any help.

Look at Hooker, Hedman, and maybe Doug's or Doug Thorley (separate companies) have something. I have Hookers on my Hemi Roadrunner; they're segmented (tubes slip together), so they make a little racket until warm and the left side blocks the starter in and is close enough to warrant a heat blanket on the starter.

Some may recommend 2-1/4, but if you are running full 3" exhaust, 2-1/8 is plenty. I will never buy Hooker again, their quality has sucked for years.

I have 2/14" headers on the hemi in my 69 roadrunner and they fit perfectly which is saying something because it's a tight fit in there. Last edited by Jack Zupan; 09/18/12 09:02 PM.

If you are going to run it corked up I recommend the best stock exhaust manifolds ever put on a car, you'll gain torque and not lose much topend. Sheldon
