<SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> </SPAN><BR>
<SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I'm debating which header to get. I already have 822 headers. The Central header is stated as being lighter, and also at larger diameter which should help the exhaust. What are some pros/cons with each? I've had good luck with the 822, but also had one break (which was easily reweldable due to its being steel.). </SPAN><BR>
