But if your set on getting some headers for sound and the best performance potential possible, get some Longtubes. They will offer substantial hp/tq increases over shorty headers, if you ever decide to get some heads.
Yes, heads, or a shot of nos, a 5.0 really comes alive with say a 100 shot and a set of longtubes, no heads needed to destroy the competition.
Im just going longtubes myself because i plan on some n20, but ceramic coated shorties like mentioned above really are nice, and can improve performance, but most of us all know not to go too big on a stock motor.
