Default SFR stage 1 304SS header

I had a customer cancel on a set of stage 1 304SS headers even though they are ready to ship out so if anyone wants a set and doesnt want to have to wait for our normal 3-4 week leadtime. Give me a call. Thanks.

Do stage 1 headers give good power increases? They are basicly a stock replacement correct?

They are higher quality steel than the OEM
They are tri-y, so they will increase torque - ESPECIALLY over your leaking original headers which are delaying your spoolup by 300 rpm.

That is directed to anyone with original, 20 year old Porsche headers - if you think they're not leaking...... That's funny.

Wow Jim, it doesn't look like you'll get any cylinder flex with that block setup. That looks killer.

sorry for the OT

How do you usually test for leaks in headers ST?

Milledge has reported 10 horsepower and 15 ft/lbs increase on a completely stock 951.The more mods you have,the more power you can make.

Submerge the car in your backyard pool.
