The price bump for the FRPPs is for their stainless steel construction,
cheaper headers are usually built from mild steel tubing.
I've got MAC shorty headers, which are warped & rusting. I'm thinking of replacing them, any recommendations? I'm thinking of going with BBK equal length...

... the ceramic coating. Will they flow any better than MAC? I also looked at the Pypes, which are stainless steel. But those are unequal length. * They are...
I'm with Chris on the equal lengths. VERY minor gains and not worth all
the other hassles that comes along w/ that choice. My vote would be for
the FRPP...

Duration is always the better number to give for cam specs. Lift is much
less important. Can get a good idea from the ET #'s and everything else
though....

So something like 224/232 range? Numbers look spot on to me. My GT40P, Xcelerator intake, 650dp, Comp XE274 flat tappet put 275 to the tires (albiet with...

You're not bad off w/ the extra lift. Most of the flow numbers I've seen on
the iron '40s (of course I dealt w/ mostly P heads) doesn't show them losing
