I just found out that the ISC header only weighs 8 1/2 lbs! I have been told that the racing beat header that I have weighs quite a bit more. Anyone know?

I know its gotta weigh more. How much exactly I dunno. But our cars are left front heavy to begin with so the weight of the header where it is isint necessarily bad.

I have both headers, and I now use the ISC on my race car, and the RB on my street car.

Weight of any kind hurts on a race car. The thinner wall of the ISC makes more noise, but it is about half the weight of the RB header.
