Would be interested to see what kind of timing you guys use and what HP that thing makes with just headers.

I'm same way, it's nice to quantify what & where power was made. I like to see what did what, & know where my performance $ served me well. Or didn't.

I didn't even know this section existed til now. Nice to see it up & good luck.

We just ordered a new dyno and will not have it for about 6 more weeks, so I can not dyno test everything yet. I know based on my experience that the long tube headers are going to gain 20-25 rwhp. The stuff I plan on testing will be stuff that I haven't seen yet tested, which will happen during winter time. I am going to street/track test for now. We just started working on our first stage for this build, the Whipple 2.3 showed up Friday, so this thread will be more active throughout the next week. A few pics:
