gains..

If i were to do the SOHC to DOHC head swap how much would the HP and TQ gains be?? Is it worth doing it? Also, how much do you gain from the Pacessetter headers or any other headers that fit the DOHC?

Pretty sure you have to find one with an auto ecu. Looking at the ecu pinouts for my EGT there are some pins for only auto trannys and some for only manual, so I am gonna say they are different.

its a header style exhaust manifold, and a freer flowing head. they just look ugly. in 1992, there were more stringent measures taken for emissions. and in 1990, they just owned all
