    Catalytic converts with sniper EFI? Due to health related problems

    I do believe the older ones did not do oxides they used EGR for that. Most new (1996 and newer OBD2 cars) have slowly eliminated the EGR. From my limited knowledge oxides are created by superheated combustion. Mostly caused by lean mixtures, which is what all modern cars fuel systems strive...

    Shorty Headers vs. stock exhaust manifolds on '73 440

    Well, I did not test this, but they all dump into a chamber at different angles and then move into the exhaust pipe. Yes the early ones are swoopy and look better than the 60s 383-2bbl log manifolds, or the more bulbous 73-74 HP manifolds. The headers point everything in the same direction...

    HP Manifolds vs TTI Headers ?

    Headers win period. Fuel mileage, HP, torque, weight, nowhere is the manifolds better. If your having problems with your headers look in the mirror, there is your problem.
