2.3 to 7.5 >:) Reply #45 – June 07, 2012, 11:19:57 AM Those Hooker headers might need some tweeking on the # 7 Tube.That is a common problem and as far as I know Hooker still has not fixed the problem. The steering shaft hits that tube.I bought my Hooker headers from a local guy who had the #7 tube reworked already and it looks nice. I am also going to extend my steering shaft and that will move the upper u-joint back closer to the firewall so I can set my 460 back all the way to the firewall. (to run the 17" mechanical fan) Quote Selected

2.3 to 7.5 >:) Reply #58 – August 31, 2012, 05:52:31 PM You will LOVE that intake. I had a weind stealth before I went to that manifold on my 545. Stealth had a 800cfm double pumper on it, but I put a 1050 QFT double pumper when I changed manifolds, but gained over 50hp just because it moved the torque from down low to higher end. Low end torque only dropped by about 10ft/lbs anyway. Quote Selected
2.3 to 7.5 >:) Reply #59 – August 31, 2012, 06:24:29 PM i was told its one of the best single plane intakes you can get and it looks pretty so i got it lol now i need to find a carb for it ... i was looking at a few used 1050s but i may just buy that new as well Quote Selected
