Stainless Steel Headers

[Jerosmith]

It all makes sense to me, I would think that you would want to follow the direction of the port, I just wasn't clear if those ports were at a different angle than the head. So, thanks for clearing that up! You've all been super helpful, I'll be sure to do it correctly according to port angle. This step at the port seems like a keen idea too, not exactly sure how I would do this, but I will do some more reading up on it.

Thanks again guys.

And if you want to get really pedantic... you should attempt to create an 'anti reversion step' where the pipe/header flange mates to the port... the 'top' of the port should be a flush fit level with the port roof, but quite a bit of benefit can be had by creating a step at the port floor (the slow side of the port) to prevent reversion of the exhaust gas back into the cylinder...

the ideal collector is a true merge collector, but they are pricey. At some point, price and room constraints come into play
