I hear these eggheads spout their bullshit and wave them the ONE finger salute. Polling NON car people about exhaust noise would be like asking me what I think of wine or of goat herding. I’m not interested in those things so I’m not qualified to give an opinion on them.

There was no flaw. There was an opinion that was stated as such: If you interpreted this as me stating what I thought was a fact, you read it wrong. The word "majority" does not mean everyone. Prove me wrong. Show me how at least 51 % of guys over 65 would choose headers. You made my point in...

The reason why stereotypes are used is because like profiles, they are based in fact. You were obviously offended when no offense was meant. Older people are usually more cautious, right? Older people usually aren’t as competitive as younger people. Sure, there are exceptions but generally, as...

Maybe so if you're sensitive to the issue. Older guys tend to aim toward reduced risk of maintenance. They aren't as driven by chasing down the last bit of power. Most have recollections of cheap headers that did leak and did rattle. They also may not see the value in a $1000 set of headers if...

I'd bet lunch at a Burger King that the majority of guys favoring manifolds are over 65. I don't race my cars but I have headers on both Chargers and even my 75 Power Wagon.

I have headers on two of my cars and my Power Wagon. Headers increase power in everything but the closer you are to stock, the lower the gains are. A stock 383 or 440 may gain 20 HP with a good set. I don't know if you can feel that difference.

Uhhh....FIVE years have passed since this thread was started and abandoned. "Evan" never came back to this to provide any updates on how it turned out.

If you have a Mopar, you're probably cooler than the other guys.

These seem like the words of an older guy that isn't interested in squeezing the last bit of power from his car. A young guy would eat bologna sandwiches and wear raggedy clothes to afford the headers, work until 3:00 AM installing them, then smile as he fires it up uncorked in the garage. Don't...

What does eye protection have to do with exhaust flow or drag racing?

I run into dudes like this at almost every car show. "In my testing" probably consists entirely of the foot and butt dyno, not actual data. Exhaust manifolds never have a power advantage over headers, they don't even come close. Even a 318 with a stock .373 lift cam will see benefits from...

Like this? These are TTI 2".

Well, TTI does make great stuff but DOUG's are as close to identical as I've seen at 2/3 the price. I have TTIs in the red car. Next time I need headers for something, I may consider Doug's just to save a few bucks.

People are going to think that you're an obnoxious American with a car like that!

The cheaper headers just aim straight back from the engine. TTI and Doug’s cost a lot more but they are aimed toward the humps in the crossmember. Years back I got a good deal on a pair of Hooker headers. I had to Zig-Zag with two 22.5 degree bends to get the exhaust to tuck up tight and fit right.

I think that x and h pipes do have some effect on reducing some noise. I suspect that exhaust pulses collide and do cancel each other out to some small degree. This is the principle behind Flowmaster mufflers. In short, they redirect the exhaust to smack back into itself.

In most cases, what firs an A body will easily fit the 66-70 B body cars. The reverse is NOT true.

The cheaper headers sure seem tempting until a man opens a thread online and sees this. You’d think these companies would buy a set of the TTIs and make their headers as close as they could to them. You know that Walter P Chrysler did that? He bought a new Ford and brought it home to...
