not sure,if he was supercharged why would he go back to stock manifolds?That would defeat the purpose I would think...I just dropped some coin on a programmer and did the exhaust from the the y back(i love my mandrel bender)...other wise I would be on these,I plan on making a y pipe this weekend.Its a pain though,truck wont fit in the garage and its been in the single digits

These might be the model they no longer make for the older setups that have the cat flange behind the cross memeber.

Kenne Bell will flat out tell you NOT to use headers with his supercharger. His was designed with the log manifolds in mind.

What happens when you use the log-style manifolds? More gas is left in the cylinders after the exhaust stroke. Sort of an EGR effect.

And, if all the gases were evacuated from the cylinders, there'd be more room for the next intake stroke. Which means more power.

Between the EGR effect, and getting TOO much power, there's a method to their madness.
