i have had it with my leaking exhaust manifolds and broken studs in head. who makes the best shorty headers to replace those cheap warping exhaust manifold that ford know they were defective from the get go

 

If you can (emission wise) add Longtubes instead. Otherwise, BBK or JBA.

 

I put a set of Gibson s/s shorties on my 97 4 yrs ago, they are working great and sound good with the super truck exhaust that i had on already. The s/s bolts that come with the headers to replace the studs seem to work well also.

 

Shorty headers from Gibson and JBA still cost an arm and a leg for their stainless steel sets.
