has anyone found more power from adding merg collectors to your headers? i will be running the shoenfeld 1 5/8-1 3/4 step headers and was looking at the dynotech collector. is it necessary?

There is power and ET to be found in header and collector tuning. The best resource I've found is a program called PipeMax. It is made by an engine builder who does a lot of class engines, his name is Larry Meaux. You can get the software at www.maxracesoftware.com, he has a free ET estimating program as well. Tell Larry I sent you.

Alan, is there nothing you don't know? Man you are genius, apply some of this to your engine building and you'll be at least 6 tenths under the index!

You could also call Mark at Performance Welding, he makes a very good product and they have a vast amount of experience on S/SS style engines.

We have a set of Mark's (Performance Welding) collectors for the Hooker headers we have. I do think they work, it seems to show some on the dyno, and maybe more so on the track. I'm sure they'd do even better if the headers were better matched to the engine.

With all of the references to Mark at Performance Welding,does anybody know if they are still paying contingency for 2009,or did they drop out too?Last weekend,I removed ALL decals from my car and I am starting from scratch.
