The main point in selecting headers isn't really flow.....in fact it is scavaging....this is the basis of long tubes being more effective than shortys....I think you are focusing on the wrong parameter regarding your headers ....having said that, I agree with CC that for the most part bigger is better as far as basic flow restriction goes....
