Long Tube Headers

Who all offers long tube headers for the 2002 5.4L? I've seen Pacesetter but not many others. How do the Pacesetters do? I had a set of MAC's on my old Ranger, didn't like them, they had a leak in the collector from day one and I could not get support to fix the problem. Do the long tubes bolt up to the cats or do you have to run a complete new exhaust system? Just curious how everything bolts up? Not crazy about the $1200 Dynatechs. Alot of money for a little gain. Do the Kooks fit the supercrew or just lightning?

I saw those too, was wondering about the quality, looked really close to the Dynatechs. Had never heard of them before so I wasn't sure about the quality. I will research them and find out, thanks!

Worth every penny. There is no little gain. 30hp and 35ftlbs. I got mine for $875 from rpmoutlet.com

Built,
Which Dynat. headers did you go with? Did you get just the headers or the one's with the crossover pipe and cats? Did it all bolt up well if you got the complete Y setup? Are they already coated or not? I've seen both, some have the Jet Hot coating on them if I remember right.
Didn't want to spend the money but theirs really looks like the best kit right now. Don't want the shorty's.

They are under the lightning parts. I think BUILT used the lightning one's and they also fit ours. Took me a while to figure it out but saw another post on the ford truck enthusiast website and pieced the two together.

yep the ones for the lightning fit the f150 4x4 also. They are just stainless steel, I wouldn't bother getting them coated. I had my shorties off and these long tubes on in 2 hours. Very easy to do. I got the whole kit, but I had to modify it to fit my 4x4, the midpipes didnt fit right, get midpipes for a 4x4 unless you have a mig welder. No big deal for me though. I would highly recommend this kit.
