...there almost brand new



Twitch...I hate you...you had to show me QTP's

 

...how much bigger is the 1 7/8 to the 1 3/4's

BTW...here they are

http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/headers.htm

 

these are VERY nice headeres !!

but u wont see ANY gains from them over ur FLPs .. unless u buy the optional High Velocity Merge Collectors...

u'll only see noticable gains from 1 7/8 headers if u go with a power adder, massive heads / much bigger cam IMHO

 

High Velocity Merge Collectors...


Exactly and Twitch needs headers





....bigger cam....that gives me incentive

 

Bigger is ALWAYS better. Yah right

Keep your flps Mike...like Payam said the difference is **** all for the hassle.

 

seriously though .. get what u got working first !!!

get ur cage done .. get some traction .. get ur LS1 Edit .. u have plenty on ur hands right now ! get it down the track properly first !!!

you are Perry #2 !

 

I want stainless I've seen some nasty *** FLP's when rusted and equal lenth...looks better...besides I want to go true duels and the race version no emission stuff...hassle...these aren't LT1's...an hour out an hour in...simple. I like my FLP's...but I don't like the y-pipe and the emission crap

 

hehe .. my FLPs are 20 mintes in 20 minutes out

i was thinking about selling mine too to go with hookers and true duals !!! but the this sh*t happened i dont like my Y pipe either

on the other hand . i really wanna see ur FLPs on twitchs car too !! he does need headers i love that car .. i wanna see more mods on it

 

40 mins from opening the hood to starting the car...damn you fast

 

ive done these FLPs so many times i can do them blindfolded !!! specially with my new K member their 10 times easier to go in and out

 

You'll probably have a overall power loss if you switch to the big headers.
There is a guy in the lower mainland that runs 10's with a 383 NA and he only uses headers with 1 5/8" primaries. 1 3/4" are more then enough. Power is all about air flow and air velocity

 

Stainless does help with power we learned that in our Recip cource, but yeah FLP's that Payam has I can do 20 mins in 20 mins out, I did them probably over 10 times in my 93, I took them out sooo many times, probably took them out 4 times just to port that is one thing I loved about those FLP's, wayyyy too easy to put in & out, now my SLP's, thats a different story all together but I like them more, seeing my SLP's with not a spec of rust makes me feel happy.

 

Ok
Mike
What are you going to shoot for power wise are you going to use nitrous?

From talking to Dyna tech when I was dealing with them they said that the 1 7/8 headers are good for when you are getting into serious hp (not to be rude) but you have not hit it yet. Now if you have a 436 ci bored stroker planned I would change my note. I would keep the flp's and just fabricate a new Y pipe. Use something like 3" as the flp y pipe is one of the downsides of the system and chokes it all down.

Now for the merge collector thing. They are good for a lil bit of hp IF you have maxxed out the induction and everything is perfect gains were told to me to be in the 7-8 hp range this is for Circle track racers who are trying to get every last ounce of hp out. Now you will be crapping out the gains of the merge collectors and waisting money if you are going to put on a y pipe and catback setup.

Will you gain hp from using stainless doubtful imo.
If you want bigger headers you might look at a stepped setup (1.75-1.875) Bottom line Is Me personally i feel you will be waisting money where as you can make a y pipe fairly cheap and get great gains from that. Or just drop off the y pipe all together loose the weight of the cat back and run open headers

PS. You probably won't see any gains though.

 

Yeah thats what I did, dropped off the weight of the catback all together good 20 pounds I say
