Default Headers for Radix comb

What's the feeling on headers for a Radix'd 5.3? I'm almost set on long tubes, but now I'm hearing differing thoughts. I'm really thinking hard about the GP Speed Engineering is having on the Stainless Works LT's.

Any headers would be an improvement. Long tubes would be your best choice.

Go with a set of long tube headers,you see a noticable increase in power and you will also see about 1/2lb.loss of boost due to the reduced exhaust restriction.The long tubes with a good catback exhaust are be worth about 30hp with your Radix setup.
