Ebay headers or f-body manifolds?
Anyone using ebay headers?
I can't seem to find any fbody manifolds.So im starting to think about headers.
Tubular have an advantage on the fbody manifolds?

Re: Ebay headers or f-body manifolds?
this has been on my mind lately... it seems on ebay f-body manifolds are around 150.00 ish. for me that's just silly. then you have to fab a y-pipe down from them and i think the manifolds don't have the o2 ports in them they were downstream more. i'm going with the speed engineering long tubes for ~300.00 and it will be easier to fab y-pipe to

In my area,noone really uses longtubes.Too much crap to drag them on and collapse them.
But thanks for the point in that direction.I thought longtubes were in the 800ish catagory.

Re: Ebay headers or f-body manifolds?
If you want a set of good quality long tubes you will be in the $800 up range. But i believe some folks have had good luck with racing innovation headers which i think are around $300 or so. I dont know much about the ebay headers. I currently have the hooker blackheart swap headers and they are top notch as far as fitment and ground clearance go. But they are a little pricey, completely worth it but pricey. When i first got my swap done i had fbody manifolds and they were not too bad but really glad i made the jump to headers.
