Does anyone make a header?
Havent saw anything about one so Im assuming no but I was just curious why not? Does the 4 stroke not require as much flow and a little backpressure and maybe thats the reason?
Seems as though it would be a weight savings also.
Please inform the newbies. Thanks, Flyn Ryan

If you were to disect the stock exhaust manifold you would see a very smooth curved path for the exhaust. You are correct that there would be a weight saving.

it would need to be waterjacketed and I think that is the thing that makes a header for these very difficult to build

Well, they do it for boats, so I'm sure it could be done. The question is: is it worth it? Are there any gains to be had by putting a headr pipe on?
And I bet it would be loud.

They actually had a nim rod on here that told me he gained power by putting a catalytic converter back in his Ford Ranger! And a FULL second in the QUARTER! NO LIE!That cat was on smack.

Hoss, are you implying that headers create backpressure?
