        Are you building a 6 into 3 into 1 header? It seems like most inline six headers are 6 into 2 into 1 . What is your reasoning? Im not questioning your decision, just curious.

          Sound vs performance. A 6-1 makes most power, but sounds like a Japanese car with a coffee can muffler.

            I'll have to agree with that, I saw an M1 at the track one time with a gorgeous 6 into1 long tube header and it sounded like ass especially below 4 k.

                    Hot Damn! Can't wait for a sound clip. Gorgeous work. It may run better with a timing belt, though....

                      Don't get too excited. Won't hear a clip until the Cometic gasket is on, along with the ARP studs. Just figured now would be a good time to fabricate the primary's/secondaries. It was that or chop the exhaust and stick the TD mani on it lol - want before and after for the headers, though. Have a 134whp/145tq baseline (stock 153/chip, headers will have a tune).

                              Very nice. Is it wrong for your collectors to arouse me?
