383 Exhaust Manifiolds vs. Headers

Did you ever hear of having factory manifolds "extrude honed", from what I've read years ago it makes a good difference for flow. It's also done on intakes.

i talked to a F.A.S.T guy a while back and he says having his manifolds "extrude honed" did absolutely nothing. total waste of money.


Bear in mind the FAST (factory appearing stock tire) class of racing that go ridiculously fast through stock manifolds.


bear in mind that they also run big cubic inches and do a ton of internal work and a lot of gear to get them to run that way. the entire combo is specially designed to run through manifolds. a lot more money than the average guy wants to spend on a street car.
