Just a quick question here:- If i got some headers that fit the stocko ford heads in my EB, will they bolt up to either Trickflow or edelbrock heads?? (Not interested in GT40's anymore). Thanks

Hey Mate,

Apparently the GT40X alloy heads will fit fine into the EB with E7 extractors :)

The Trickflow "street heat" and "Track heat" heads use the standard exhaust spacing and placement. The "high ports" and "R's" have a raised exhaust port which require custom extractors.

I have Trick Flow twisted wedge heads and standard EL2 XR8 headers bolt straight up.

HOw much can you get a set of EL2 xr8 headers for???
Do they still even make them or do you have to be lucky enough to find a wreck?
What size primaries on the EL headers?
Also, i hear a lot about E7 headers. What size and who makes them??

Question for trickflow EL, I see you have two different power outputs in your signiture. were these taken between doing different mods or just differences in dynos?? Cos it seems like a considerable difference if no mods were done between dynos.

The Dyno runs were on 2 different dynos.. done a few weeks apart.

The lower reading was done on an MDX Dyno, using Avg Power figures. I'd guess the one @ Jakes would be a Dyno Dynamics Dyno, in shootout mode, and the figure would be peak power.
