Default Devek headers and X

For your approx 465 rwhp, or more with bigger screw, you should have at least the 1.75" primaries and also dual 3" pipes after the headers. Any less and it would be as if one had to pass gas while having the proverbial corncob stuck up their orfice. Save your 2.5" setup for a lower output motor.

Oops. So all that money I spent on the regular 1 5/8 LII headers and HPC coatings is for naught if I am shooting for 550rwhp on ~14psi?
At least I can make sure the X and pipes are 3"

I'll make sure I do larger primaries for the larger motor.

We would have to do the whole batch in stainless, and the price would be at least double the cost of the mild steel headers, so I doubt we will get that many takers. Thanks for asking, though!

I'll work on finalizing the list tomorrow, looks like we will have enough to make it a "go"

Erkka,
I'm going to make a "guesstimate" on shipping to Finland:

1 set - $125
2 sets - $185
3 sets - $245

This would be using an air freight company, with delivery time of 7-14 business days...of course faster and slower options available...and I would have to confirm with the actual weights and delivery address.

Thanks!

what would be the potential gains of putting headers on my stock m28/09 (high comp 4.5l).

or are headers only useful with supercharging, head work or other flow enhancing mods present?

We sold a set to a guy in New Zealand years ago, and he had to do some significant modification (i.e. cutting, welding ,etc) to get them to fit, but when it was done he was happy with the result.

Wish we could be of more help, but you would kinda be "on your own" if you want to modify them. The only way we could help would be if we had a RHD car here, and I've never seen one in the states.
