Re: Why does everyone bash shorties?
i Runn jba shorties. I like them. but full lenth are the way to go, unless you just want to have a bolt on with no mods, then get shoties.
I have heard bad things about the gibson shorties so beware.

Daren "lovintheC5" had Gibsons on his truck. I think his dyno was 5 rw from them and he lost e.t. Thats what I remember him telling me, but it's a little fuzzy. I do know he was very unimpressed with them.

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> So 15 to 20 rwhp with shorties is out of the question, even with the cam and heads I have on them. Who sells mid and full length headers? What are the best?

The only long tubes that I know of are Arizona Speed and Marines.

Re: Why does everyone bash shorties?
With dyno proof to back up the gains for mid/long tube headers vs. shorties, you are gonna get some flames on this one <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
