lt's are the way to go. better performance and sound. they dont cause drag issues either with a drop kit. I use pacesetter LT's and like em. the dynatechs are very nice

some have seen even more. but 17hp is the average. if you get a tune to go along with the headers you'll see a huge difference

Are the mid length headers that your talking about the bassani opti-lenghts?

edit: sorry, i forgot that the opti-lengths are the longer bassani headers. I mistook them for their shorties.

a buddy of mine has them and they're a high-quality product. I don't know if they sound much better than pacesetters. and he didn't really gain but 5hp from his (dynotuned)
