1 5/8 headers
How fast in the 1/4 have you gone with 1 5/8 headers with 3" collectors? ET, mph and car weight? Thanks.
I run 1-5/8 headers in my 91/96 dodge dakota because for some reason thats as big as hooker makes for it. I would like to try a set of 1-3/4 or 1-7/8. I have never got to weigh my SB Dakota but I am guessing with me in it, it weighes around 3400 pounds. I still have to get a 8 point Roll bar installed. So I guess that will add another 100 pounds? My 360 magnum has right around 11.1 compression and is raced on 93 pump gas. The converter is tolose on the top end and I need to get it pulled and sent off. Just dealing with health issues right now. But I hope to get it pulled , fixed and put back in the truck before March. I think the truck has a low 11 or high 10 second pass in it. But so far the best passes have been 11.24 at 116.86 in the 1/4 and 7.16 at 96 in the 1/8. Which I think is pretty good for a projunk yard engine.lol here is the info about the engine. Also I added 28x10.5x15 pro bracket radials and a holley 850 Track Warrior carb to the truck. But haven't got to make any passes with them yet.
The engine isn't much of a build. My friend built it as a claimer engine for a class he was racing in. He ended up building a gen3 hemi engine for his 87 dakota, so I bought thr 5.9 magnum engine off him. Here is a breK down of the build.
