Header recommendations

Looking for suggestions on a set of LT's for my '94 F150. I need to find a way to increase gas mileage, even a little bit! The 5.8 is a real pig!

U.M.

I realize there are many companies that make headers to fit my application, but what I was looking for was some first hand information/knowledge from folks who have installed headers on a '94 or similar year truck. I was hoping to get info like, "Don't use the Hedman Headers because they won't clear the starter", or "the hooker headers are impossible to get to the passenger side rear manifold bolts".

I guess I was looking for a little more specific info...

Thanks any ways...

I was actually leaning towards the Hooker Super Comps myself, drivers side looks like it would drop in from the top without much difficulty, I'm thinking the passenger side might be a different story though.

L&L Headers? Not familiar with them... Got a web address?

Bassani makes a good set of equal runner length headers along with a larger y pipe to go with them. They are available with the ceramic coating also. I have used their headers for awile now and would recommend them.

Are you currently running a set of these on your '94?
