Default Just landed a set of Headers for the 90

I just got a set of used Waston's for the 90. Thinking it would be neat to dyno the car now....i already know the car runs a 12.88 @ 112.68


Then add the plenum...Dyno and run at the track

Then the headers........dyno and run at the track

This would make an interesting article.


Also thought a porter shootout would be fun.....try different manifold porting on the same car to see if there is a power difference. Locobob, Jeffvette, Pete, Haibeck and maybe add a "carbide cowboy" and see the difference Siamese vs standard porting....rough plenum vs smooth, etc

All these controlled data would be valuable for anyone contemplating performance upgrade and bang for the buck info.

Your input would be a road map to holy grail for a lot of us.
