I have some Flow Tech headers with True Duels from my old '98Z. Now i have a 2005 SCSB 5.3 and would Love to just put those on?

What is the Final Status on using F-body headers. Was it just the shorties and the Mid-lengths or the Long tubes as well?

litreddevil? EXILE (with the mids)? whatcha thinking?
