891 RWHP with Vortech & LTX
The guys at Kook wasn't sure if 1 7/8 headers were enough.
What brand is everyone else using. Thought about running the Ebay knock off 1 7/8 headers. But, I like to buy American. Not a fan of people copying company products in the states and getting them made overseas. But, 300 bucks is very intriguing.
Its great seeing it finally make the #'s I new it could make.
The way the graph looks I think it will peak at 925 to 950 RWHP. Since the goal was 800 I am so happy. Cant wait to get my IC1000 injectors in.
The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
We ran out of fuel. So I know there is at least 950 RWHP in it. This is also with NO METH still. Maybe has 4 digits in it.
With meth.Only time will tell. Here is the dyno of 891 RWHP that we did today. Will be getting some new injectors tomorrow. Also, I think I am almost at the end of my twin 255lph pumps too.

Vortech Prototype Air to Water. I think it is 1600 CFM
CX Racing Heat Exchanger its like 28x12x2
Chisled 5.5 gal Ice tank w/ Rule 2000 pump
3/4 lines
On these runs I emptied the tank a little less than half. Thru in 20lbs of ice. Intake air temps while cruising were between 60 to 65 degrees and hit mid 80 degrees at full throttle. The dyno was reading ambient air temp at 91 degrees.
I mounted the intercooler in a burkhart bumper support DIY kit. Along with my meth.
This car really woke up when I switched to the Trickflow Heads from TEA and the Solid roller from Golen. Also finally getting a real ECM helped a ton too. The kit from EFI connection is amazing.
So I found out that I can gey a DIY header kit from stainless works for about 900.00 with slip fit merge. Just not sure what the gains really are going to be.
Is it going to be 50 plus RWHP. If not not sure it is worth the effort.
Whats everyone else's opinion. Not sure if its worth it?????????
also I think your twin pump setup is very close to max out. They will cut out at 950 max and I have seen some cut out closer to 900. As for the header setup, I would do ebay kooks knockoff with 1 7/8ths and get a merge pipe to run from the headers and make a new y pipe from a 3" to a 4" exhaust out the back. Dont the x pipe and just make way with the merge and 4" setup






This has to be IMO the most impressive LTX setup ive ever seen! Numbers are insane....interested to see final numbers!
