Big Cubes = American Racing Headers!
one question:
what would it cost for a set of these headers on a 3rd gen. fbody using an L92 head? 1 7/8" primaries to a 3.5" collector? motor is a 13:1 6.0 using a carbed intake and 2 stage plate setup <200 hp. expecting 500 whp on motor and ~700 on n2o.

I assure you I am not a troll, but have never had the opportunity to dyno the same larger disp. engine with 1 3/4" with tune then immediately 1 7/8" with tune. There are lots of rumors about torque and people say the are happy they changed from this to that but it would be wonderful to pick a larger motor and do an A<>B test.
There was a long thread on the C6 Z06 forum about brand X headers new 1 7/8-2" step headers and several people tried them with confusing (at best) results. When do the larger or step headers net results?
I think I like my 1 7/8" with 3" mids but I am often asked "should I go 1 7/8" or even bigger with my new motor (we build them) and I can't make an educated recommendation.

Okay I am dragging up old threads in search of header advice. I was looking at the Kooks 2", but still on the fence about what we want.
I really like the ARH setups and was thinking of a 1 7/8 primary when I noticed the Kooks. Now 2" may or may not be overkill but I also don't want to spend $2,000 on just headers and y-pipe either.
This will be for a 454 LSX with a LS7 top end and some spray...

Azrael, I think it would be smart if we spoke by phone. I'd like to go over some important details before recommending a specific set-up. I'm sure we can narrow it down. Reach me at 631-608-1986. Thanks.
