Re: Headers
The short story is your Jeep Intake and exhaust manifolds are pretty good
(better than most).
Seriously, your first improvements should be a set of top-of-the-line brake
pads and the best quality tires you can afford that are suitable for the
driving you will be doing. (BFG MTs are great off road but you don't want
to drive them in ice or snow)
The most important thing in driving is not being able to go but being able
to stop and turn safely
I will assume that as a younger person you have a limited amount of free
cash and can say that most of the hop-ups you hear the ricers talk about are
BIG BUCKS and each gives only a little extra power/mileage.
If you have a bankroll or rich and indulgent parents then take the Jeep to a
4x4 shop and go wild, have them pull the engine and send it to your local
speed shop, trailer it to a custom exhaust shop,and then drive it to the
tire store for rims and skins.
And then buy lots of life and medical insurance because you can not take off
ramps at 70 mph in any Jeep.

Re: Nitrous Oxide
They did not use it when I was racing in the early-mid 70's at the little
track up in the next county where we raced.
Well, I did not know if it was used by anyone. As you know most of the
successful teams 'bend' as many rules as they think they can get away with.
There was a 1970 W-30 442 that came over from Indiana to race that used to
kick everyone's butt. I always wanted to take a good look at his engine
setup.
