headers on a 460

I was wondering how much more hp I could getout of my 460 with a set of headers. I have a 79 f100 that had a tired 460, so I just put a low milage 460 out of a 78 grand marquise in there with a c6 behind it. It runs out very good now but every little bit helps. Thanks

BD, just my nickel, but forget it, go with duals. :-)

An engine operating under 4000 rpms will have very little increase with them. I have a set on a truck, but would not do it again.

IMHO
