Default cheap replacement for headers

could be a good way for intake, tune and drag guys without headers to run with those with headers for a fraction of the cost

Might as well buy a real system and be able to run a 100 - 150 shot if you are going to that effort. You can jet down to 50 or 75. I don't think on a vette you would really want less than a 75 shot. Ask in the FI section.

Back when I was young I has a Vega with a 350 (around 1980) and NOS. Didn't really know what I was doing, (some things never change) and I used it way tooooooo much and the motor blew up.
