Headers, Max Wedge and HP in that order.So what was the outcome?
I didn't watch the second video yet, but I think that in all cases, if you put a full exhaust on those motors, the max power difference achieved with the various headers/manifolds/etc. will be reduced. So for instance, in the first video the headers provided +74ft-lb peak torque over the HP manifolds. However, if you bottled up the engine with a full exhaust the advantage would be less, maybe only half the gain, who knows?
Maybe engine dyno rooms aren't typically set up so an engine can be coupled to an actual exhaust system, but that'd provide more accurate data imo.
there was a dyno test HP manifolds vs the log exhaust manifolds there was no difference. why would anyone run the heavy max wedge headers not making as much HP as headers and heating up your engine compartment and master cylinder and everything else. plus the weight pulling your header bolts right out of your heads.
yea if you had a real max wedgeBecause the nostalgic look..........piece of history!

i will try to find it. read about it 3 years ago was on one of the mopar forumsLink?
