off topic, but i have a new Meziere fs if you decide to pick one up. On a 408, I'd expect 8-10 rwhp.

I'd shy away from the hooker 1 7/8" headers. A buddy got one and they are super tight against the plug wires. I have kooks and they're no where near that close.

How about a little info on the heads, cam, and exhaust setup you have so we can get an idea of the bottleneck in your system.

Cam is hydro, car isn't together. Just wasting space in the house. I'll shoot a PM.

I'd say save up for the new heads and cam as they are gonna make the big difference.
