Testing manifolds against headers on a high horsepower engine seemed a little of to me. Thats why my dyno comparison was done on stock 360 with a very mild cam. Headers were still worth a lot compared to even the best manifolds I could find.
But I missed it on the 5.7 having logs. My bad there.

Do you have the results of your dyno tests?

The summit ones are basically Hooker headers... I had them on a 1969 Bee with a 440 and they worked without too much banging. However, would strongly suggest TTI headers... Mine were worth the headache in money spent Mike

Wrong. I've owned Big Block B-Body sets from Hedman, Summit, and Hooker. The Hedmans and Summits have similar bend patterns, but they're not the same. The Summits are nowhere near Hookers (in bend pattern, or quality). The coated ones ARE identical to Patriots. The uncoated ones used to be identical to Patriot brand uncoated as well, although not anymore, as the uncoated Patriots have changed. I believe they are manufactured for Summit by them.
