Default Header question!!!

HA! You were probably thinking you were going to see some stupid thread like “..what’s the best header..” or some dumb $h!t like that but no, this is a different question. Have any of you who have done your header already ever looked in it to see how its bottle necked? I’m going to post up a “graph” and let me know how your aftermarket header was constructed. (pardon the Microsoft paint diagram i wipped up)

Yes, but I’m interested in seeing how hi end aftermarket headers applied the physics of fluid dynamics. (IE. how much of a lip if any was used)

I was joking. One can't see what the OP is looking for without one. Despite the relative affordability of low end borescopes these days, I doubt anyone here has one. But if they did I guess they probably would peep inside their nice new header before they installed it. I would if I had a one.

I was looking at a stock ap1 header and it's built like diagram B's internals, vs a Megan racing and T1R header that i also looked at that are built like diagram A.
