Interesting headers Mark. Looking at that last photo howerver, I hope you never pop a head gasket!! Should be good for keeping the tires warm though....

Huh! Never thought of that.
...Been doing them like that since the 80's.
Not too many other good options on some of these things.
I suppose it would be worse for a RWD to grenade a transmission and have the oil go under both drive tires ;-)

Mark,

Are you running factory ECM or aftermarket EFI? If factory, are you using only one O2 sensor?

What mods to the transmission?

Rick , It is a factory computer reworked by Ed Wright.
Timing and fuel curves moved around, limiters and shut offs set at a high value.
No O2 's , no EGR, no vapor valve, etc are hooked to the computer.
LT1 adjustable fuel pressure regulator..That's all.
No electric trans signals of any kind...It is a mechanical T 125 C 3 speed.

Are you running a limited slip differential or spool?
