MAC headers w/D1SC
How does everyone like their Mac headers with their ATI kit?
Also did anyone switch from Mac's to LT headers w/3" y-pipe? And if
so how much did you gain in the whole power band? I'm not just interested
in just peak hp & tq. I'm looking for people that switched and made more power thru out the whole powerband.
Thanks

now i wanna install my GTP 6.0 heads and my D1SC/twins kit very soon. And
i was going to just get a set of SuperMaxx's which replaced the FLP's but they cost a lot even though they are stainless, and i can get a new set of
Mac's with y-pipe both ceramic coated for half the price of SuperMaxx's.
And the money i save on the Mac's i can put into the SD Concepts 8-rib
tensioner system. Like you said, alot of my buddies had Mac's and they went
fast with them. Thanks i think u helped me make my descision.

Back in the day I switched from MACs (modded collectors) to FLP long tubes with a P1SC and gained absolutely nothing anywhere. Granted it wasnt huge power and had a stock engine but it was still a 10 second car.
The MACs are pretty decent headers for an FI car really until you start getting into bigger power/RPM.

I am going to switch mine out here soon but I did put down 500rwhp/490rwtq on EPP's dyno with my MAC/Ory stuff. That was with a D1SC at 6.5psi. I am going to a 6.0l and pushing more boost, that is the reason for the change.

Thanks KP and ChevyChad...Looks like i can't go wrong with the Mac's and off road y-pipe.I'll take a dremel to the primaries to open them up alittle. Plus i can use
the money that i'll save going to the Mac's over the LT's for upgraded parts.
I know i could make more with LT's but i'm not shooting for that most power
i can make. I'm just shooting for something around 530rwhp to 550rwhp
since i'm still running stock bottom end.

Now my next descision...a cam. I like the TR Blower cam, or MTI's Stealth cams,
and even the SC1 from Speed, Inc. looks promising. Want a good cam that will
go with the GTP 6.0 heads. I think the intake runners are 215cfm or 220cfm...
i've had them awhile and i don't remember their size

with the GT2-3 cam, or the GT7 cam, and the TR Blower cam. I ran
a small cam in my T/A and i loved the torque it made. Just for ease of
tuning i'm looking at either one of the Lingenfelter cams or TR's cam.
The SC2 looks like a ordinary N/A cam. The other choices i listed seem
built more for FI.
