Default 346 w/ open headers?

Does anyone have a heads/cam dyno graph with open headers?? I want my next exhaust to have a quite (restrictive) muffler with cutouts in front of it, but the only place I have space to put them is right behind the header collectors. The headers are 1 7/8" Dynatechs with merge collectors. I'm curious about how much low end I would loose with basically open headers.
Not that low end is that important w/ 6000 rpm launches. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> What would the gains/losses look like accross the graph with open headers?
TIA <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

FYI I am running a GTP Pig cam/S2 heads and Hooker Long tubes along with many other little toys <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
