I'm going to be building my own headers on both my 240/300 projects. My 54 F100 is getting a built 240 that I'm going to go with a full length dual outlet headers. But on my 300 I'm wanting to try a 6-3-1 header design.
I know the 6-2/6-2-1 header design is the much more common design. Basically grouping the front three and the rear three cylinders. Besides the packaging is there any reason a 6 into 3 into 1 design wouldn't perform? I know a lot of the old Triumph inline 6 guys were into this lay out. I believe the 6-3-1 lay out would group cylinders 1& 6, 2&5 and 3&4.
Just wanting to hear some opinions on this.
