the Momenton have way more efficient merging primary in the collector and is also going smothly to the flange to optimize the scavanging.
mandrel bent is also a must but a proprely welded tubbing can do pretty much the same job.
Interesting. I'm happy with my LTH's either way.

the transition start at 2 1/8

with the cams that I plans to get, i would need a bit bigger than this and I cant afford doing a whole new step headers.
unless I kick myself in the butt and get a Tig welder...

I use to be a very good Tig before I joined the army ! but I can only have access to a 15amp 120v which mean the welder machine cant be too powerful

I'm not too knowledgeable on welding, so I'll take your word for it.

I had the Stillen shorty headers on my car a couple years ago, matched with FI high flow cats and FI catback. The car was tuned prior with just the HFCs and the catback. The headers made gains, but I felt the gains weren't enough to justify the cost of the headers + installation.

I also didn't like how it took away the stock VQ note.
