I think I get the point folks.

It's like overkill now.

actually i was reading on the gen1 chevy truck forums and in one thread they said that headers on the gen1 motors give 0-7hp and that its a common misconception that headers give a lot more

i use hooker longtubes on the dune buggy and it really helps the motor breathe. the stock manifolds have like 7/8" primaries that go into a 1.25" log. the hooker longtubes are about 260 ceramic coated I think. they're worth it, and so is the ceramic coating. btw, I'm still thinkin about selling the motor out of the dune buggy, i'll give you the headers with it too
