Have you made a choice yet on headers? If not, shorties are your best bang for your buck for DD, towing, mud, modded motor, something better then stock flowing to help compliment a cat back, but not super radical like long tubes that would require more time and effort to install verses a bolt on and go pair of shorities. And FYI long tubes will always be a MAX EFFORT performance enhancer when compared to manifolds or shorties. For a few reasons, full length tubes, tuned tubes, different merge collectors, better scavageing abilities to name a few.... All of those qualities equal more HP :). Hope this helps

i think his choice was shorties if i remember right its on facebook page

My long tubes are from Texas Speed, they are "OK" but the matching ORY was super awesome, Kooks will be my next pair with new motor

My first set they sent me had a 1/8th pin hole around the flange that leaked terribly, then they sent me new ones and let me keep the old ones. Now I have a new repaired set Of LT's to use for my next swap project

ive been using the factory metal ones, i dont think they are very attractive though, summit racing have the sleeves?

i dont believe they do and i think ebay is cheapest place i found them i need to get some more since my shaft ate the top of one since the crush shaft part broke on me
