Got a voice mail today saying the headers are ready to ship. Did anyone else get that?
Oops - Just looked through previous posts

I'm sure it will. I redid my whole exhaust to eliminate any bottlenecks.

There is always a bottleneck, you may have reduced the severity of it, but there is always a most restrictive part of any exhaust system. It will be interesting to see if the gains up top are worth the decreased low volume velocity and subsequent loss of torque down low in the RPM range after the headers. Will certainly drive differently.

The primaries will dump into the x-over pipe and back bank's dp, then into a 3" collector, which goes into the 3" downpipe, into a 3" system. The only real bottleneck is the muffler.
