[HealeyRick]

Hopefully more like 25-30 hp than 100. I made a reasoned choice to go with the cast iron manifolds. Headers would require too much modification of the footboxes and there's the usual noise, rusting, loosening and leaking issues to deal with. I'm keeping the standard Healey rear end and wire wheels so I was targeting approx 275 -300 hp, like the original 289 Cobras. The 345 hp number was sort of an "accident" from the engine builder (Thanks, Jesse at Mike Forte's). I could go with side dumps in front of the rear wheel for a few more hp, but my hearing has already suffered from too many firearms, race motors and rock concerts, so under the car exhaust it will be. Plus, no "snake-bite". Even still, I'll be about doubling the stock Healey horsepower ratings. It won't be a Cobra killer, but it will probably be able to beat up on most Healeys.
