Ya, the nitrous is supposed to go into the engines intake not the drivers.....

Long tubes are the only way to go if you want to make power! Even on a bone stock 302, long tubes are "Not" gonna’ kill low end torque. That a fallacy manufactured by people who want an easy way out to installing long tubes.

I’ll say it over and over, again and again, Shorties are a complete waste of money, time and material. There is a natural restriction in all short tube headers at the connection to the H-pipe that you can’t eliminate. No matter how well the pipes scavenge, that built in restriction is gonna’ kill any gains in flow. The Shortie makers forgot to tell us that ‘cause they want you to buy their products.

You wanna’ make power on the low end and top end, go with long tube headers and don’t listen to all the hogwash about them killing low end torque... It just ain’t true!
