What are the colector size of the stock ramhorns, 2in or 2.25in. Just wondering because I'm thinking of the chevelle 3/4 lenght headers or some kinda street rod headers. So confused on what to do, please help.

Stock ram horns are 2" but you can get 2 1/2" in the straight down ram horns.

Thanks for the repley on the size of the collectors, but anyone on the rest.

I'm pretty sure stock (at least for our trucks & most passenger cars) is 2". The corvette got the 2.5 - http://www.gmgoodwrench.com/gmgoodwr...ion=ep#3797901

& the general still has them.

All this is correct.
If going with headers, you may as well get the full length. The 3/4 ones don't doa whole lot for performance, all they do is look cool and burn up plug wires.
Hooker makes an awsome full length header that will not hit the ground and has pretty thick walls.
