:3d_frown:WE HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM:3d_frown: Most of you have heard of pulse firing. Here is a quick run down. This is what should happen, since we have a six cylinder. We have two collectors with three pipes in each going to one 3-2-1, known as a Tri Y design. Which makes the most overall...
I'm going to dig one of mine out. Maybe even get it flow tested at the shop. My memory of a stock manifold is not good. Would Extrude Honing do anything here?
The flange is 3/8" thick @ best. Yea looks like a header build tread coming for "Mythical"(that's what my friends call my car):biglaugh: Thanks for the link. Sounds like the OBX is much better made than the Pacesetter.
No worries, this is why we are sorting this out:icon_bigg. Looks like a Pacesetter header BARELY can handle a STOCK 7M head exhaust flow! Put a ported head on it and you just wasted time and money:3d_frown: It's just old tech guys the thinking behind this header is just dated. Tanya's Trust...
:3d_frown: WE HAVE A PROBLEM:3d_frown: I just measured the primaries on my Pacesetter. "Inside diameter" which is what we have been talking about is 1 3/8" not an 1 1/2"!!
Close:icon_bigg. For the DD 1 1/2 primary and 2.5 collector is what your looking for: Stock to mild build up.(intake, exhaust some ignition upgrades) Headers: Pacesetter, OBX, Doug Thorley
1 5/8 primary and a 3" collector: All of the above plus head work, cams, compression. Header...
So you shortened your collector. From this stuff looks like you hurt yourself, I know the design sucks. I always thought two O2s might work better plumbed into the upper Y section.
How long should the collector pipe be? Well track or dyno time. Since most of us have to have cats. Lets stay legal the modified way:biglaugh: A good cat can act as a "pressure wave termination box" I'm using a small flow master. The length between the collector and the "pwtb" is your tune on...
Nice header! Wish it were bigger:3d_frown:

Thanks man:icon_bigg So if we are going to use a Trust header the collector needs to be a 3" one.::hah:: Looks like all those N/A guys running 3" exhaust are on to...
Okay my math sucks tonight 1.75 x 1 5/8"...some place over 2.5"?
Reason:
"A good starting point for the collector/secondary pipe size of a simple 4-into-1 header is to multiple the primary diameter by 1.75. Fortunately, the collector can be changed relatively easily and it is often best...
This is why I asked:
"As for the secondary length-that is from about the middle of the collector to the end of the secondary (or the first large change in cross-sectional area), we find a great deal more sensitivity than is seen with the primary. Ironically, few racers pay heed to collector...
Thank you Tonya for the Trust header information. You have given us a great missing link. A great two into one collector would looks like a wonderfull adition to the Trust header.

Now lets get the collector length...
That being the case then any 5/6M header 1 5/8" primary will cover the needs of 99.9% of the 7M world even me. The hard part is done, no pipe fabing (DARN:biglaugh:)
Kool link, but we need simple stuff.

Okay a stock 7M head flows 130ish cfm. Plug that in to the chart. A primary pipe of 1.375". My thinking a primary pipe of an 1.5" would cover most applications. I don't have...
