Looking at the 2 dyno sheets it looks like switching to the manifolds and pipes richend up the air fuel ratio some.

That may indicate there was a little more power left on the header test with some tuning. Probably not much though, 510HP with RA manifolds is really getting it done. Makes me want to try a set of those RA manifolds with the 3” outlets.

Yeah they call these 2.5”outlets but actually they’re a little smaller than that. Rare then adapts a 2.5” end to a 3” pipe. I run those into a 3” x pipe system with 2.5” mufflers and tailpipes.
