RE: Open Headers
No.. It does not hurt your engine.. I know of a lot of people that switch to open headers before they run the 1/4.. But.. I don't recomeend keeping them open very long.. 1. You'll get pulled over.. 2. You'll get a ticket 3. You'll be ****ing poor.

RE: Open Headers
One reason nobody runs Open headers on the street is that it is illegal.. .. Also.. Running open headers you 'should' gain HP and TQ.. I know that is the way in some of the old small blocks we have sitting around the house.. But those are older vehicles.. I don't see why it wouldn't be the same.
