In my opinion, headers for our cars don't flow much more than the stock manifolds, certainly not worth $300 or more to me, but thats just my opinion [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think he was asking how much ignition timing you had retarded...Most people on 100shot or higher retard the timing a bit for safety. Was yours timing stock?

Wooops, sorry. Yeah I didn't retard the timming at all. My main goal of the night was to run a new best and blowing the motor really wasn't a concern [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've been trying different things and found around 1800 works the best for me [img]smile.gif[/img]

No I didnt drive the car home, it would crank but would not fire. I removed the valve covers and I know what happened. I don't know exactly what caused the motor to rev so high, my rev limiter is set at 6200, anyway what happened was the motor over reved and compressed the valve springs, I could easily push them down with my fingers, I pulled the heads and it actually looks pretty good, hand cranked the motor and all pistons came up and down so there isnt amything wrong internally. Guess I will have to investigate a little more and see what actually took place
