I just saw a blurb on "Trucks!" advertising new headers for the GT40P's, from a company called "Torque Monters", they look like LONG, windy, equal length headers that go up, down, and all over the place.
Has anyone heard of them or know how they would perform, or more imporantly, fit into the Fox bay?
thanks

EDIT: just looked them up online: $789!
$689 if you buy them from the website...
wow....

If I remember correctly, they are for 4.9L V6.

No, they are for 5.0 litre explorers and they are a funky design winding more upwards than down until the collector. They will bolt up to the explorer heads or gt-40's but I don't know how the design will fit with the fox body engine bay..

Do they not make long tubes for those heads? Seems to be a much cheaper and easier way....

There are two different "5.0s". Both are 4.9Ls, but ones a V6 and the other is a V8.

these are def. for the V8.

LT's also work and are cheaper, I was just intrigued by these as I hadn't seen them before...

They are most likely a 'long tube' or 'equal length' header just to fit the Explorer chassis. I would guess (without any direct knowledge) there are other unequal length headers that look very similar to Mustang headers.
