Last night I pulled my MAC headers and installed the welded version of these Edelbrock headers. The fit and quality was great.

I am skepical about the Edelbrocks. The 3.5" collector seems like too much.

I have them on a heads and cam 346 and like them. The collector waistes down to around 3" then goes back up to 3.5 ". I welded the collectors on then had the headers coated locally, no leaks at all. Won't have any dyno numbers untill spring when it comes out of hybernation.The fit was nice and the y-pipe was a pleasent surprise in
both quality and price.
