the better you can tune the computer, the more HP you will get from mods

Re: Edelbrock Headers, Exhaust & Manifold

When I went from my stock headers to the edelbrock ones that I have now I saw a 22 HP increase. I don't think you can really get 60 hp more with a set of edelbrock headers?

Re: Edelbrock Headers, Exhaust & Manifold

ah ok im very pleased with 22 hp from the edelbrock headers.

i mean the edelbrock headers with an manifold, have to look wich, becaus i maybe want to install vortec heads, heared the GMPP are good? & edelbrock exhaust

but for the first stage of mod it, i just want headers, manifold, exhaust
..goal is 50-60hp ore more, of course

50-60 HP increase with TBI without computer tuning is a pipe dream.

As to the Vortec heads and intake manifold, look at the "Budget 350" sticky on the TBI forum. Even if you stay with 305, that's the info you need.
