Posted February 8, 201114 yr comment_345124 Hi all, I am currently having an engine made for me in England for my 260Z. It will hit around 230bhp on the engine, and Im guessing around 190 at the rear wheels. I currently have the standard MSA header:http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4350155683_84587db201.jpgWill this suffice for the new engine? If I upgrade to a better header, will it improve overall?RegardsHendrik Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/38518-new-engine-good-header/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one important aspect of exhaust manifolds is that they last and don't rust out or seize up on the mounting studs Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/38518-new-engine-good-header/#findComment-345170 Share on other sites More sharing options...
