[V8Vairs] RE: Header choices

[Rick Norris]

Tobe,
You will not see it. Pick the headers that are in the best shape, sell the 
other set.

I measured the headers yesterday and I think the Hookers are actually
1-3/4".

be a huge difference?

I have two sets of headers to choose from and I'm looking for
advice/opinions.

The first is an original Crown set, I think they're 1-1/2" with 3"
collectors.
The others are Hookers, made for the Crown conversion.
They are 1-5/8" with 3-1/2" collectors.  They also have heavier wall
tubing.
I plan to have them ceramic coated.

The motor is a mild (RV) cam 350 Goodwrench with Edelbrock Pro-flo EFI.
(305 HP) Car will be used mostly street, occasional racing.

The extra set will go with the car I'm selling.

Thanks,
Toby
