Not Ranked
There's a guy on this forum that has a set of headers on his SPF that only looses about 5HP. His name is Eric Brown and we passed a few e-mails back and forth when I was considering ordering a SB stroker a couple years ago. I think he may have sold his car but if I can find the info he gave me on the shop that builds the headers / sidepipes, I'll post it here. Eric H. built his engine as well (418 stroker w/ 550HP).
I would keep the engine set up just the way it is. I know how you feel about over revving (scary!) but if you go to a dual plane intake I think you'll be sorry about the HP you'll loose on top. Switch over to drag radials to get out of the hole better. I think the biggest changes you could make (that would definately show up on your time slips!) would be to the tranny and the rear gears. The TKO600 is the way to go. MUCH better spacing and gearing for these light little cars. Even makes 1st gear usuable!
