    A really lean condition and retarded timing will give you the same results, hot headers. I have had my headers glowing red hot with my 400. The more I richened up the carb the cooler they got. On the other hand, I have heard where other guys have had really rich setups that caused similar problems. Check and make sure it isn't your timing, and make sure it isn't too lean or rich as well. What do the spark plugs look like?
