Clark and 66Mustang,

Thanks for the input! I have been to the JBA shop in San Diego and checked out their product and liked what I saw. (you could arc weld them tubes without burning through) About 350 bucks for the pair and I felt the quality was well worth the price. Only concern was that for our application they said I needed to change motor mounts to the pivot bolt style (we have the pin style now) and to do that I had to change the motor mount mounting bracket that bolts to the bottom of the shock tower. Those are rather pricey new and hard to find used. So, I decided to not go with shorty headers at the time. Perhaps now would be the time and I wonder if they have changed the motor mount and bracket requirement so maybe I don't have to get all that other stuff?

Thanks!
Neal
