Re: Manifold/header comparisons PART of the answer



All for this stock verse headers conversation is really make me think again if I want to move forward with the stock headers that I now have on my 413 wedge rebuild that I just completed.
   
  Want to keep it old school but an increase in HP is an increase in HP

Yes, only a 36 hp gain over stock 906 heads using the Hooker 1 7/8 
headers. The Stage V were ported and flow tested big valve (2.14/1.81) 
heads with the same Hookers. Max flow on the V's was 291 at .800 lift 
intake/ 217 at .700 lift exhaust. Max flow on the 906 was 221 at .500 
intake/ 160 at .600 exhaust. The 906's are perfect for the cam tested 
(.488/.491) showing matching your components is critical.
A higher lift cam would definitly open this engine up a lot with the 
ported heads.
I'll try to find if this engine was tested with Eddy heads.
