im assuming you have a stock cam which is why you MUST tell us if you noticed any power gains with those runners

Hard to tell, if there where any gain in performance.

Probably is. I'm sure that if i had measured the performance
"before and after" i would have seen the difference.

But i'm sure that the runners together with a ported
(or Edelbrock) baseplate and my new (not done)
350cui engine. i will see a considerable gain in performance

I wasn't supposed to put those on until i had my new engine
ready, but i couldn't help myself......
