Re: Best Headers for a SBC....??
Sandersons are nice with a great finish but keep in mind the tubes are only 1.5" instead of 1 5/8" like alot of others so if you are going for max performance that might be an issue.

Since my engine will be pumping out close to 450+ hp then I would need to flow as much spent gases out as possible. With little restrictions as well. Either shorties or long tubes. But since Al said he has dropped his front end and using Doug's long tubes with no issues that sounds like the way to go for me as well.
