Will these headers work on my truck? I was planning or running a header pipe off it, like you would with a Ram Horn manifold, if they worked. Also, I can get these headers in a Armor Hot Coat for $35 more. Would that be worth the $35 or not? Thanks for the help.

I think they should work because 4wds use center-dump manifolds.I`d pay $35 for a decent coating on them.

No, the front tube won't clear the engine mount.

I would say no as well. A few years ago I tried the same thing and the collector runs right into the motor mount.

Oh yeah,I forgot about that.I shoulda looked at the picture better.You`d need the ones that have the front tube come back over the second one.

Hmmm, that sucks. Thanks for the help though.

Jegs sell a Patriot brand Tight tuck header but they are about a 100 dollars more for the raw steel and an additional 100 for coated

Yeah I've seen those, still not sure whether I should/want to run headers or Ram-Horn manifolds. Will the HP gain from headers really be worth the money, or should I just stick with Ram-Horns?
