I switched out my old Hooker headers with 1.75" primaries and 3" collectors for a set of Dougs headers with 2" primary 3.5" collectors.
Neither of these have collector extensions.
I got out to the track Friday night, and found that the car slowed quite a bit
60' 1/8 1/4
Before 1.621, 7.623 90.20, 11.985 112.30
After 1.685, 7.687 89.70, 12.089 111.06
I think it bogged a little of the line, so matbe torque is down.
Later I removed the air cleaner/filter, and it seemed to slow a little more.
From this I am thinking it may be running lean with the new headers.
Can anyone recomend a move to get back the lost power?
