Pete:
How's it going? Been a long time. I am not refuting your installation experience; at this point you've done many more than me. I'm simply trying to make sure everyone has accurate information. What's confusing to me is Sammy typed that his SWs looks just like OBXs design. That leads me to two possible scenarios: 1) SW's changed it's design and are now selling 'short tube' headers or 2) Sammy is mistaken.
I have a set of Watsons and SWs somewhere (in the attic I think
), and also have photos somewhere (which I can't readily find
). What I can tell you from memory is the Watsons and SWs look *exactly* the same, sans the former having the primary tubes pieced together and welded. And Watsons are a true long-tube design (as are Corey's/Jeals). There is simply no way that a Watson/Jeal/SW design header is going to have a 12rwhp discrepancy between them. Now, a short tube design like OBX? I can totally believe it.
