Default Header Help

I am running JBA Ceramic coated headers right now that came on my truck. I want to change them over to Dynatech's Long Tube headers w/high flow cats. What kind of gain over the JBA's am I looking to get since they are so darn expensive. The best place I found to get them is rpmoutlet for 1500.00 kicks to the groin. Any suggestions. I am willing to sell the JBA headers to anybody who wants them. How much are they worth used?

I think they are worth more than $100. They retail for $550 new! hey only have 13,000 miles on them. I would say $200 at the very least. But I might change my mind later. Thanks for th input though.

That's a little strong. I do just fine with my JBA's but there's no denying Long Tubes are significantly better.

Yeah, you can buy the LTs alone and keep your cost down (somewhat!). Also, I've had the Dynatechs for 3 years now and love 'em. Good luck!
