I'm old skool, I do them for torque, HP meh, you get a couple in the lower range but torque is king on the street.
Not for racing but to escape the traffic clog of spaghetti taco eating masses that point a mashine down the road.
Shorty headers have all the advantages and in the RPM range 90% of cars run they have really no disadvantage.
Nitrous is max torque but you better have a damn good suspension and fly paper surface . was Always fun for me when a 12 seconds na beater would 60ft in 1.3's on the bottle without being a gutted tin can ,filling bottles got old fast though.Moar Torx
We went from long tubes to shorties to Noobz infatuation with KB blowers to come on man it’s a 302. Only on Stangnet!

Lol gotta keep the lights on in the forums
If you dropped those headers off at my house for free i'd throw them in the recycling can.
Suspected to be mac is bad enough, no flange? Hell no, i'm not a fan of crowbarring tubes into place.
Shorties are really fine for most cases. Personally i like bassani equals, not sure if they really help or not, but that was my preference. Never burned a wire on any set of equals i had either. If i remember correctly i used taylor wires.
And yes, one of the sides you need to remove the motor mount nut. It's honestly not that big of a deal.
If i were to ever do another set of headers, i'd just pay up for something high quality stainless.
I see long tubes as a race car thing. They are a pain to install, require a different mid pipe, hang low and really don't provide much power improvement (if any) over equals. Why bother...
