Default Headers - Which ones?

Hey guys, I need some help choosing a set of headers. I routinely tow a 11,000 lbs 5th wheel, so I don't want to loose any torque. I am trying to stay below $500 for this venture. What are your suggestions?

Thanks!

Since you have a supercharger (or that is what your sig says..) I would recommend a nice set of long tube headers. The only downside is price. In my experience two good brands are AS&Ms and thorleys. (there are lots of other brands out there, but these are the only two I have had dealings with)

I have the thorleys. THey would suit you great. Around $500 and they are long tubes. They are the best bang for the buck headers hands down. I would like to see a head to head test between the two. I bet they would be really close.

02denali,

Have you burnt any spark plug wires since you added the headers. I ask because that and leaking always seems to be the horror stories.
