I really wouldn't waste your time or money with the runners. We all know that you won't get that much of a difference. I would rather put the money into them. I would rather save the money for heads or something else. The runners would be the one of the absolute last things I would put on because of the small power gain for the money.

I have heard the Edelbrock headers have some clearance issues in our cars and aren't really worth the money... You're better off with the SLP's. SLP's offer a lot of bang for the buck and you can port the heck out of them... Actually stock Runners are really restrictive and a worthy early upgrade in TPI setups. Especially if you plan on doing some home porting

Although ya, you should probably get heads first... and don't skimp on them either!

Get the heads first. BTW I have heard from various people that the Edelbrock and SLP runners are complete crap. A couple people said they use runners from scoggins dickey that kick ***. Not sure on the details, you might want to search around.
