I have 416 heads and I've ran flow tech shorties and test fitted hedman LT's with no issues. Only catch is you'll need 90* boots- most folks overlook that aspect because they're too excited over getting headers.

Flowtechs I dont- was the set without air injection/non emissions. Hedmans are 68460 and will be for sale on here soon.

I'm running Dynomax shorty headers with straight plugs with no problems.

Fit good- minor clearancing on the drivers LCA tab. Went in VERY easy- was really shocked. I have 'new' (4 year old) motor mounts. That can make a difference sometimes. I was VERY pleased with the ground clearance. They tucked up very nicely- as good or better than the shorties with Y pipe I previously had. Only reason I'm getting rid of them is my wife wants me to have either a coated or stainless set so it 'matches' everything else in the engine bay. God bless her

There's a couple of dings from the PO on the passenger tubes- nothing major that affect performance. I'm asking $75 + shipping.
Here's some pics below for comparison of the 2.

Re: headers for straight plugs
The number stamped on them is 85012. I bought them at a swap meet a couple years ago so I'm not 100% sure that is the actual part number that somewhere like Jegs or Summit would have them under or if the part number has changed since them.
