Ok....I am slowly building my car....Which type of headers are easiest to install? Shorties or long tubes? Which of each type is recomended to hook up to a Gutted stock cat and 3 inch catback? I want the power and the ease of changing plugs with headers..Which is best for each? I am also doing the job myself and need easy to install. And I am building a 355 to swap in and should be pushing around 390-400 hp when I'm done....Any helps appreciated

 

A set of 1 3/4 shorties will be the easiest, and would be a good match for that setup. 1 5/8 can support up to 400 hp.

Personally, I'll be putting out around 370-390 hp with my setup, I'm going with Hedman long tubes 1 5/8 headers, they're cheap

 

shorties are easier to install

 

what shorties were you looking at?

 

I am really not sure which type I want. Thats why I was hoping for some suggestions on brand as well as short or long.I have only had my thirdgen for 2 1/2 months so I am still learning about these cars. Thanks

 

well you could go with the hooker shorties and have them jet coated, that way the temps will stay down. you should pick up a jegs catalog or summit, they have some good headers in there for our cars, you can get the catalogs free on there websites

 

I've been gettin jegs and summit since I was 13...I know all the headers in there... I was just trying to figure what everyone's suggestion would be...

 

oh i see, well like i said i would suggest either hooker or hedman, but definitly get them jet coated
