Afterburner headers
I for get what they are called, turbo chanber pops up, but are Afterburner's headers that was designed with a combination of different header designs avalable for for a 5.7 TPI IROC? What do you guys think of theses headers, what kind of numbers do they produce?

I have only seen them for light truck and older Nova/Chevelle/Camaro applications, not 3rd gen. Probably because it wouldn't work in a shortie style, and that's about all you can do with our cramped engine compartments.
In concept, it sounds like it should work. I haven't seen any dyno data or other comparison testing to prove it, though.
