B1 heads only please but I am soon going to be having a set of headers made for my B1 headed 572. Probably going to be a stepped header type design but what are you guys running. This will be for a nitrous combo. Thanks

Max RPM is also part of the equation and the amount your gonna hit it with.. if I were home I could run your engine through my header program to tell you what you need.... but I cant.. its on my other puter

I wouldnt base my headers on that.. it has a good bit of the info needed but it sure doesnt ask all of the data needed... I've been using the header max program for years and have tested it on the dyno

Though not a B-1 Chuck from best did a header test a while back and posted it. I believe it was an 572 -1. The smaller 2 1/8" were better until the very end of the range like 6000-6500 Doug
I think I found it with the search: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...rue#Post8275911

Interesting post. Im having 622 with PSO heads built and will need headers. It is a pump gas engine with shift points around 7000ish in a 72 Barracuda. Have been told TTI 2"-2 1/8" step with 3 1/2 collector will be enough. Im kinda skeptical about them. If need be ill have custom ones made.
PSO headed 632 from MM. Cracked cylinder, loose valve seats, low oil pressure, low cylinder pressure. ..... Now its a door stop....

I did 2.375" on my Coronet years ago and would never do it again . I don't care what some calculator says , it has to fit in car.A 2.25" would work just as good and it is way easier to buy and find in stainless or carbon . The B1 is only a 1.78" valve so its not fooling anybody by putting a macho pipe in it.
This is good advice ^^^^^. I would also advise against anything bigger than a 4" collector. J.Rob
It does make a lot of sense

John, Mines 2 1/2" with 5" collectors...Not saying you need this size,but know one has been faster with B1 originals than us with our/your type car...Your gonna have more torque than you can use at the start and can use all the HP it can make out the back door !!
Just sayin !!

For your type of car Gary makes a very good argument. If you have to pull power anyway you might as well gain it on the top. I was thinking slow tanks like mine that need the torque. Doug
