Default longtube fitment

http://www.bbkperformance.com/produc...h-headers.html

Just to verify before ordering, bbk #1533 will fit on a mach right? It says 4.6 cobra, but I believe I read somewhere that they will fit both.

Exhaust occasionally scrapes lightly as it is. Do you think longtubes would make this much worse?

yup those are correct. You should be okay with the scraping, just be careful. That's what I do with my slightly lower hanging SLPs LTs.

ok good. I've been putting off doing the synchro tsb as long as I can, but spring is here and I would like to be able to shift into 3rd over 3k rpm haha.

So I decided... if the trans is out anyway, might as well get a nice clutch for it while I'm at it..... and somehow that turned into long tubes/shorty mid-pipe as well.

I need to hurry up and get all this put on before I spend any more money!

you can shift into any gear so long as you use the clutch. Driven correctly, the 3650 will last. Driven overly aggressive for an extended period, that's when they go. Great thinking on doing that stuff while the tranny's out. Man, it's easy to make excuses to spend money on our Machs. Have fun with it, and get a vid on the exhaust notes sticky when she's all done.

you can say that again. I've never taken it to the track so I have no idea what it would run now. But I do have a set of dr's in my basement waiting to go on. Looking at your sig it looks like 11.99999 wouldn't be that far out of reach? It already has 4.10's and an sct tuner.

That far out of reach for you or me??? What are all of your mods?
