Header info needed
I know this has been asked a few times. Which headers are the best for the value? I have Flow Tech full lengths on my 86 and would like to go with a shorty when I get the motor swapped. Thanks

Re: Header info needed
Here is a post from another forum I'm a member of about short headers.

Re: Header info needed
I've got Hooker comps on my 85(painted). The passenger side header laid right on the starter. I had to put a small dimple in them so as not to fry the starter. I'm still going to install a mini starter for additional clearance. I'm thinking now that Flowtechs would have "fit" the build better. East wood sales header and manifold paint. I've got a set of Flowtechs painted, but the engine hasn't been fired yet.

Re: Header info needed
I'll use what I've got. I just wanted to know how hard it is to get over the trans. cross member and figured shorties would be easier. Thanks

Re: Header info needed
I'm also wondering what headers are best for the price, and can full lenght headers work on a truck with a 5-7 drop?
