Sorry to hear about your car and its early demise.

...I have narrowed my header choices to either the Comptech 4-2-1 1-piece or the JG Edelbrock ProFlo 2-piece.
Of these two which has better fit/finish and better hp/torque gains?
Comptech claims a 12hp gain when combined with their cat-back system (so I would guess around 7-8hp gain with stock system).
Edelbrock claims a 6whp gain when used with the stock exhaust (with around 15% loss at the flywheel that would be around 7 horses gained at the flywheel).
So, unless someone can convince me it’s a bad idea I will probably get the Edelbrock 2-piece with brushed s/s finish. It’s about $100 less (including replacement gaskets & bolts) than the Comptech polished s/s and appears to be very close in performance and quality.

Thanks,
John
