    Methinks(I know - archaic, but I'm an OF) that step headers need to be developed with a certain airflow - camshaft and head design and an RPM range that the engine will turn most of the time and that just welding up a set of pipes at arbitrary lengths without airflow/dyno tests wont do it and that Hp might suffer

    If you do build them, please make sure that you keep the forum updated as I hope you can prove these guys wrong .[/QUOTE] well air flow and length has alot to do with any set of headders and heat get out of the tubing is power to more heat going out the tube and not threw it and how long has alot alot to do with were the engine is and where the tube needs to exit some times they get abit longer am i jerry stall NO but i build alot of headers and jerry is not me i do ok shame less plug why not. i did build a set of step headders on here and posted all of it well ok i am not jerry S or david V
