Cool

I posted longk ago that the exh pulses will interfere in the "Y" in each head, and real bad if a plate is used to block. When EXH crosses-over they interfere with 1-one other CYL. Fill the "Y" to remove heat and reversion caused by the crossover. Of CYLS 4-3-6-5, fill the "Y" completely for best Header (and Manifold!!!) performance.

Yet a torque tube can also occur, if wanted by filling half the "Y". Reversion remains greatly suppressed too. Fill the branch of the "Y" for 6 & 3 to the EXH bowl window.

Reversion mitigation is important. If you run a RA-IV or bigger cam than factory, then i strongly recommend either crossover fill for best results.
