Get LT's, if your not worried about emissions test. If you can do the LT install that will help with your cost, and drop the K for install. Shortys don't do much for you in hp, even if they are much cheaper, don't be fooled. If you want deep rumble go H and if you want raspy nascar go X. Different H's and X's will be more or less raspy or deep. There is a minimal hp difference with H and X, not enough to worry about.
If you have money go SLP, hooker, BBK in that order, IMHO. I also suggest O/R prochamber for your mid-pipe. Listen to others suggestions and then decide.

well im trying to make it sound like a cobra pretty much, i am deciding on headers, cams, x or h pipe, and exhaust, i also need to find a good site that has all the good parts for a 98 gt because alot of sites only have a little bit for each section of the engine....eventually i will SC it but im going to wait till next year....

You'll only get sound of cobra out of Cobra. Cobra sound way they do because of DOHC, which GT don't have:( .

But if you want something close, Then LT and X pipe with SLP. I think you'll get something close to that of Nascar - That high pitch exatic sound.

I myself would go with H or Prochamber. But thats because I hate the tinny sound of X pipe

Go with shorty only and ONLY if emission testing is major concern.
Amount of work required to install headers in our car, I just can not see shorty as cost effective mod, especialy if your gonna have someone else do it for you..
