Ok some my (95) stock header is cracked and I want to replace it but I'm not really impressed with what's available for a decent price. I'll eventually do a stroker engine but for now it'll remain as is. So the question I have is for those of you that have put aftermarket headers on (real true headers) how has your low end power been? Has it improved or stayed the same. I'm looking for driveability mainly for rocks and not looking for it to be a race truck as this thing will be getting heavier as the build goes on. The reason I think I'll build my own header with a longer primary tubes and even lengths (or even flow style if i can't package the lengths). I've talked with our cam gurus here at work and the std 6~3~1 system that is used is effective so I don't plan on changing that, just from years of testing (V8 race engines) I don't see the store bought headers as being the best they can be. I know a lot of different considerations go into a product so I'm not blaming them just saying if I'm going to spend money why not do it myself for just the cost of materials as my time is sort of free.
Thanks,
