That's exactly what a gal told me.....that and your header can't be too big!

Update: They tried several different headers with no increase in power also a cam change. It sounds like the owner is going to be satisfied at 990 hp. I don't have the rpm specs at this level, only that it will pull to 8k.

Now the owner is working on his Ford (460) that one of his employee's drives in my stock class. The owner says that me beating him 3 times last year is unacceptable Lol! Should be a good year, can't wait!

If you take a look at a strong running SS/AH 68 Hemi Cuda or Dart, or Comp Eliminator drag car, you would be suprised at how small the primary tube size and collectors are on these big dollar, high RPM engines.
