1 7/8 headers
Get Coated ones..I bought Texas Speeds 1 7/8s because one day I plan to use them!
I would like to dyno my Cam set up with 1 3/4 vs the 1 7/8s to see the power losses or gain and the curve..

I am running kooks 1-7/8 race headers. I am not making a ton of power right now but once i get there I don't want my headers holding me back. No need to buy something twice. Get the 1-7/8 and you will be set for future upgrades. Yes.. there will be future upgrades! You won't be able to help it!

ive also tossed around the idea of ditching my 1 3/4 pacesetters for 1 7/8 hooker longtube headers or possibly ARH. also, wanting to hear peoples experiences who made the switch and if they gained much? or how much faster did they run?

another vote for 1 7/8 TSP's ..There is a guy in my neighborhood with a pretty identical setup as me(we are both cam only) and i put down 10 more rwhp than him and i have beat him by as much as 2 cars from a roll. we are both m6 z/28s but he has hooker 1 3/4 and i have the TSP's..just my .02
I bought KOOKS 1 7/8" for my set-up because I know my future mods are going to call for it. Hell even now on my 346 after all the research I've done I believe I'll see better numbers then with 1 3/4". I say 1 7/8" all the way!

i have 1 7/8 QTP because i got a killer deal on em (325 new)
definitely get coated!
i dynoed 325/342 with these headers and ran a 13.1@110 with a 2.1 60, if that helps
oh and the car sounds like a stang with the catted y (yes it sounds that good)
