Re: Headers for a c10

Beat up the tube. Have you seen the video where the guys pounded the headers mercilessly up at the block with a sledgehammer and it made no difference in the performance on the dyno? Back in the day, we called those "tuning dings", and never noticed a difference in performance. Those guys proved it. Roadkill Garage, maybe? It's been awhile since I've seen that video. Quite informative.

Engine Master's did the test and was very interesting.
