[LS motor swap.]

Hedman Hustler makes a mid-lenght header now for A-bodies LS swaps. a little wierd but they list specifically 70-72 Monte serparately.... I called and asked tech why Monte is diff. from 68-72 A-BODY and he said nicley, "Because thats how they made them" grrrr. he coudnt give any reasons why or what is differant. so now im stuck on which to order. Heres the kicker- the Monte Part # is actually same as earlier 66-67 A body....[you said a naughty!]???????

good luck with project brother!

[New heads! SIX WEEK WAIT!]

you you basically went with the 335 fully ported setup, correct? cause the 325 arent fully cnc ported....

[Closed exhaust vs. cutout or open headers]

compression ratio is more important to gaining with open headers than actual H.P. level....
