i might consider it maybe we could talk em into makin long tubes after the fact. i live in sebring so that would be the only hold back. but i think i'll still will do it. looks like his craftsmanship is really good and they shouldnt rust which is a plus.

Very good work! If he starts making 4.6 headers, then I'd get them.... eventually.

Looks just like pretty much all the other shorty header options....

Mainly because they use a ball and socket collector just like all the others, which is a choke point for flow. The Edelbrock shorty is the only one I've seen that seems to have a decent collector.

Update:

I am noticing better gas mileage and smoother acceleration through the entire RPM band.

3 days of on and off driving-

The gas mileage was noticeable so Im assuming at least a 1-2mpg gain.

And we did mine in 9hrs with no prior experience on a F150 header install and we took breaks and shot the ****, so Im sure youd be done in 1 trip.
