I just removed all the exhaust from my 5.0 L engine and I have a set of ford motorsport long tube headers. To start, im not sure if there are any tricks on how to get those in but if u have any sugestions please let me know. Also, i planned on going from the headers with about 3 or 4 feet of pipe then just my flowmaster mufflers. So, basically im putting mids on the car. No H - pipe or cats...good idea??? Also, if you have heard wut theses headers sound like please let me know. thanx guys

you should have a a crossover tube of somekind. this equallizes the back pressure in the exhaust for better performance from the engine.

Yeah any H or X is a huge benefit unless you are restricted by space.
