I had BBK longtubes on my 95 and they make great power and looked awesome, you could even see them peeking out underneath the car if you were standing far enough away. But they SUCK!!!!! because they burnt up all my damn heater hoses so I had NO ac or heater. There isnt as much room in the engine bay compared to a fox body so the install BLOWS, not to mention that the headers dont have an air injection fitting for your smog pump. So you have to remove the smog equipment which is very illegal or somehow drill a hole into the header, cut the fitting off of your stock header and weld it onto the new one. It just sucks....get legal equal length headers with the fitting already on it. You wont gain THAT much more hp from the longtubes if any at all.
