I'm not a fan of Gibson. I won't say they are all that bad either, considering some of the guys running them like them. For the money, they are comparable to a custom exhaust set-up. For these trucks, as far as Gibson headers, BIG WASTE OF MONEY (IMO). The only shorties I would consider would be JBA's. The best dyno I have seen with Gibson shorties was a 5 rwhp gain and a slower ET. Don't get them just to have "headers", get something that will at least give you bang for the buck.

Gibson wants too much money for their cat back, You could get a flowmaster for half the cost and be as effective. I put on some JBA headers and really didn't notice a world of difference, the predator programmer changed my truck the most out of all the mods.
