What do you have going in to the bosses on the eickert headers RMPRam? Or maybe that is just the pic? Yes, nice setup!

The -12 an line is an overboard dump. There is a -8 an line that dumps overboard, behind that one, and a -8 line from the top of the header that connects to the tailpipe.

No, the tailpipes are waterjacketed. The innercooler has 2 outlets and each outlet feeds a tailpipe and one of the 3 upper header dumps goes to the tailpipe on that side.
Sorry for getting off track.
