    I've ran tri-y's on a bunch of high revvin' skinny block Fords, they sound great and work even better...... Only thing we ever found more (dyno) horsepower with on a high rpm engine was a set of Jere Stahl step headers.... To qualify this though, I haven't played header and dyno games for about 10 years so maybe the new headers work better, don't know. Not sure what the tri-y's do on a bigger engine, here I'm assuming you are running a 350?????

    the doug thorleys are great headers, i've got a set on my mustang and love em...they used to be sold just as Doug's Headers but he went through a nasty divorce and his wife got the rights to his buisness so he had to start over again with a new name.... but they're still just as good if not better than the old ones ....they aren't the cheapest headers out there though... i believe i paid $400 for nickel plated and ceramic coated and thats with being a buddy of Ed Hansen (personal friend of Doug Thorley and also an exhaust engineer with a nice shop)
    just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day
