PowerPipe Exhaust for slant/6
i don't think that it is fair to tell this guy that it sucks... ideas start out crappy and then evolve before they sometimes even become real! i would like to add my .02 by saying that u should look at some step style headers. i think u will see the gradual tube size change. when u go from a high velocity tube 1 1 /2" to a 3" pipe u are getting a huge velocity drop=less hp, but by stepping the reduction or increase u don't hurt velocity as much. one other thing is that u need to consider that this is a 225 CI engine, more if bored. so if u have TWO 3in pipes there is almost no flow, ie no exhausting of the cylinder on the exhaust stroke. so what im getting at is that most slant guys run one 2 1/2" pipe or two 2.25 pipes, so make ur final tube/collector(s) two 2.5" or one 3".
again i think that it is wrong for anybody to diss an idea, people tell me my ideas are crazy and i tell them to go f**k themselves!
good luck on your header idea! just need to take factors into consideration.

P.S.
i was told i should build a small block because it was easier
i was told i couldn't build my own AFX plymouth...
