So, I'm getting ready to re-do the exhaust on my 1989 5.0. I'm looking for a good quality, 1-5/8", equal length, ceramic coated long tube headers. As far as I can tell, the only two companies that make headers to meet my criteria are Pace Setter and Mac. My first thought was to go with BBK, but it appears that the BBK headers are unequal length. I'd much rather have equal length for sound and scavenging purposes. The Mac headers look okay, but I really don't like that the primaries aren't flanged because I'm sure they're going to warp from the heat. I'm thinking about going with Pace Setter, but I'm concerned about the quality because I haven't found any feedback about their long tube fox body headers. Has anyone out there used them? I'd love to hear from you if you've used any Pace Setter products.
My Mustang is currently running Ford Racing unequal length shorties, so I know there's plenty of room for improvement there. I'm running AFR 185 heads with an X303 cam on a stock bottom end. About 8 years ago she put down 320 hp to the wheels, naturally aspirated. I'd like to see if I can squeeze some more horsepower out of her. I just know this motor would scream with joy if she had some full length headers bolted up.
Let me know what you think....
