They are great headers but there are much cheaper alternatives that flow just as good.

I agree with ya snakebite but its way less costly to tune a carbed setup. And more people can do that as opposed to a computer tune

emissions are why i'm considering fuel inj. the 5.0 i have is a bit tired, thats half the reason for emission probs. the 351w i have will be clean as a whistle, so i think thats what i'll go with. keeps the engine bay nice and clean and wide open without all the hoses, tubes, wires etc. of an injected setup.thanks for all the input. if anyone has any parts for sale, or their knowledge to throw in, let me know.
