Really nice results! With that much TRQ the owner is going to have a "permeant" smile! Are headers being used in the car or manifolds?

[My427stang]

I believe he is planning the original manifolds, we cammed it for that, but even so, it'll take some big numbers away at the peaks.

All original externally though, and add a bunch more torque and power, should pull much harder than Ford intended

Those manifolds are pretty decent compared to most other Ford manifolds , those guys that run in the F.A.S.T class port the dickens out of those manifolds , it'll be a nice sleeper
