I could've sworn I'd read an article (on the Summit web site) that stated shorty headers are better for low-end torque... I'll have to check that out again...

Secondly, would it or would it not be cheaper to raise the bore/stroke of a 2.5 block rather than buy a (junked) 3.0 and have it swapped in by a shop?

.RMk..


it is the size of the primaries that is going to give you more torque. long tube always yield more low end... shoty's are a better mid-high rpm header.

the block is to fragile to bore aftermarket. although it can be done (it will be very expensive)


i am offically a troll... so take my information and advice with a grain of salt.
