Those Dynatech stepped headers are seriously bada$$ - I have them on my car and love them, but . . .

Make sure you take care of the possible air leaks on your collectors if you use the slip-on collectors. I would try to get the weld-ons or use good sealant. I am having problems with those right now, but will hopefully get it fixed here shortly with weld-ons.

Yes Terry they have there own Dyno but I'm not dynoing the car with open headers.You;d probably scream foul for no Y-pipe on the car <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

How is your passenger side primarys? Ive had mine on for a couple months,and its been rattling now beating on the k member and has wore a little hole on tube. When we prototyped the headers on my car at dynatech they were fine but they didnt have exhaust attached to them. So how is your fitment? I have welded on collectors with the FLP type V clamps on them how much would mufflex make a y pipe for it? Thanks Justin

Are you changing from a 2.5" Mac Y-Pipe to 3" Y-Pipe?

I have no doubt that you'll see some nice gains over the MAC headers, but I bet the stepped design won't offer anything over the standard 1.75" tubes... I don't think they'll hurt, either.

I'm adding a PA Kmember to the car..I dont think I'll have any issues with headers hitting anything

I agree George but I figured if I ever decide to build a bigger motor or add juice the stepped design will only help .

I'll have info this week
Then I have to install the Kmember,hals,12 bolt.
