Header design info

I'm trying to find books/websites what ever info I can about exhaust systems and header design in particular. I've been searching alot but there seems to be so much hearsay and contradictions about the subject its hard to pin down whats fact or just garbage. Any help, any at all would be greatly apreshiated.

The backpressure sticky in the top section of this forum has some pretty good stuff in it.

Not sure exactly what you're after.

Re: Header design info

If you want info on how to design headers, the best info I have found available to "joe average" is from Headers by Ed, but you have to buy it as a packet from them. I haven't seen it in years, but I assume it's still available.

I'm not a fan of the "backpressure" sticky, but it is vehemently defended by board members, so it remains a sacred cow here.

I'll just leave it at that.
