Default how much will headers improve?

what should I expect when I take my car to the track? I've installed edelbrock headers (how many miles per hour should i expect and how many tenths should i get from them) my best run was 13.6 and 102miles per hour. ( Y pipe installed with headers....i also have borla exhaust)

same here, when I had stock cubes with the 847 cam I picked up .6 tenths in the 1/4 with JetHot longtubes. Anxious to get to the track to see what the new setup will do.

Are your Edelbrocks longtubes?
