The meticulous attention to detail is one of the many things I am enjoying with this series, and this is yet another example. I'm looking forward to the next video in the series.
h0rr0r100 Those headers are stainless the coating is not needed. Stainless doesn't conduct heat as well as mild steel does and has much of the same effect and particularly on a car like this the performance difference from that little bit of heat would be negligible.
Seems to me in function your headers air path is not equal length. IE: Your # 1 cylinder only has one slight bend and it's "X" long. #4 cylinder has two bends, second bend is severe and causing the pulse to slam against the wall, two walls in this case, slowing the pulse down compared to #1. I understand the fitment problems. Just an FYI for guys who hear "equal length," but don't understand function.
Equal length is not as important as having an air path that doesn't introduce interference. Pro Stock or Comp Eliminator engines are diff because they work in a very narrow rpm band. Otherwise other science is important.

love the video! second time watching it
The type of collector is also important. This appears to be a "merge" type collector, which appears to have advantages over a "straight" collector....
371st 👍's up thanks for taking us all along with you
Is there anywhere u can by a collector tip like tht for just a little small block Chevy?
One exhaust tube is bigger in diameter than my trucks exhaust
what ever happened to ceramic coated? was that coating proved to be not effective?

do you mean the #7 cylinder?

Cardboard template with tape all over it... some second grade craft class looking shit... 🤣🤣🤣
