Re: Headers.....holding motor back?

Yep, my annual beginning of April race at Speedworld has been moved to Firebird, but in May...a little worried about the heat. I'll PM Marv D about the gas turbocharging so as not to hijack the thread.

If I was the OP, I would keep the same exhaust system, and not worry about porting the heads. If I were going to save or spend money on anything in the future for better streetability (and fuel mileage), is to eventually go to an electronic fuel injection system.
