Have you also considered/know that small blocks thrive on back pressure?
Generally...
Open headers work best with alcohol or nitro motors.. (Like mountain motors) Rails and funny cars. pro stocks.

Have you considered running with the cherry bombs on? Cant hurt to make a pass and see if your times improve..
Provided... you can cut around the same light everytime... You may find your times and speed may increase.. Just a little FYI as a diehard small block guy.
Scavenger pipes? Please explain.
As soon as I was done with the video I put hangers on. At the front and back to secure and reduce any pressure on the headers/collectors.
I have decided to run with them on there because of the back pressure actually. Last year I tried the open exhaust and it made no difference in my times. It just made it loud..which I love but the glass packs make it loud too..LOL

Unhappy >Sad News our World & the USA<

Hi Member's,
I made the mistake of watching the evening news & it's very depressing & sad

I understand the tragedy that Mother Nature can do to so many, but I don't understand the behavior of many human beings in our country.
It's difficult for me to believe that this is happening in the USA. I know that it has happened in our past, but I would hope that life would be better in the year 2015.

I don't have the answers, but I hope our government starts using it's resources to bring peace & safety for `all in our country (?) Does it bother you ?, or are you to busy just trying to survive ? Your turn > your thoughts on our country > out world ?
I hope our member's in the Baltimore area are safe & their Monte's 2.

I just don't understand some people >>>>many people : ( I thought certain area's of Miami were BAD, but this should not be happening in the USA : (

These people need to be reprogramed & taught 2 work, 2 respect & not destroy other's properties ...
It makes me sick.... I feel for the police that have to deal with human garbage that don't respects the laws of the country....: ( That's `all)
