Just an idiot check here... I got Evan's old header on the car and all fixed up. It now clears my tuna can, has leak free collector/slip joints, mounts to the stock trans location, and has an O2 bung welded just past the collector.

Now my question is simple. I wanted to idiot check that I should be gunning for 12.5:1 or so at all points; idle, transition, at WOT. I leaned out on idle to the point that I think I'll need a 65 idle jet on my 40 Dell's (34mm vent). I took an extra full turn on the idle volume screws to get it around 13.5:1.

I must say though I picked up more than a few HP with it. It's a 4-1 in somewhat of a KH design with a Phase9 style muffler with an extra 360 degree SS loop between the collector and muffler to add some length to the secondaries.

Pictures coming...

Hmm... I thought I'd be on the idles at part throttle. I'm talking less than 1/4, but more than "cracked". Opening the mains is easy as I have a ton of them...
