I DONT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH my long tubes. only thing is i cant drop the car as low as i wanted because they hang so low. i guess just dont buy crappy headers. i have slp they have been good.
Just stay away from MAC LT's and don't lower the car. I run shortys and I love 'em. Of course the LT's do provide a little more gain than the shortys.

No smoking at all. I had Ford install them while the motor was out having other work performed. I believe they can be installed without having to remove the motor though.Do you have smoke issues with your shortys? and also were you able to install them with the motor still bolted in?

I actually saw great gains with my JBA shortys.Do NOT waste your time with shorty's. They have been proven time and time again to not be worth the money and time. The install is still a pain as LT's and the gains aren't even close. The LT's make more power throughout the powerband. Sorry 600-800 bucks for 5-8 rwhp is not beneficial unless you like dropping coin.
Don't buy MAC L/T's. I have had my BBK's on my 96 Cobra for 24,000 miles (7 years) No oil burning, no problem, great ground clearance. Even if I lowered it, I would still have ground clearance. I didn't get my car dynoed before and after the L/T's, just after the blower, so I don't know of any gains, but I was running 4-5 tenths faster at the drag strip then all the stock Cobras my year.
You can expect most shops to charge anywhere from 350-600 or so in labor. I paid 350 to have my long tubes installed. Keep in mine shorty's are just as much a pita to install as long tubes, so you really are only saving money on the cost of the headers. To many including myself, it is not worth it.svt32dohc: you run bbk shorties or long tube?
uncle meat: any advantages, performance or install, with your JBA over the bbk? ps gotta keep it street legal in NC
what should i expect install in $$ or hours of labor?
