And those are words, they are of Your experience...it counts. Becasue there aint no way I'd have survived a 351C with long tubes, even if they gave another 40 hp.....
Long headers, well, If your trying to put together one of woody's FordStrokers AFR205 headed, Edelbrock inducted, 42 pound injected 442.8 rwhp at just 4800 rpm, and 525 lb-ft at 3600 rpm 418 F4 blocked stroker with no cracks in the cam tunnel, then you might just get away with them.
And the EBGT Falcon the 418 went into is an MN12 in chassis arrangement, only wrapped tighter than a dead mans grave cloths.... like to see how you do a starter removal , pan drop and rack replacement with long headers.
Woody exports. Sometimes in units of 554 flywheel net hp. Its about Experience. Your Results May Vary.
