el cheapo shorty headers worth it? *UPDATE*
 

So, I was looking around on ebay and saw these shorty headers for 85 bucks. they say they are stainless, and look like they should be a direct fit. has anyone tried the cheap ones? what kind of gains are you guys seeing from a stock to shorty swap? i've always been a fan of long tubes, but for the price i'm really temped to give em a try.

not worth it

from my understanding the stock headers flow very well, and with something so cheap i wouldnt expect any gains from it

I dare you!!
I double dare you!!

I was wondering about those too and I would ceramic coat them before installing.
As for the pacesetters ive heard of leaking isses at the flange

NEVER be cheap on your mustang, it may not give you any HP, and you dont want something breaking on on your mustang, when i shop for peices for my motorcylce i never look at the price first because id rather spend the extra couple hundred then grind my skin on the ground. dont be cheap about things like this.

you dont want to get that crap really do you? save up for some ss jba's or some mac's.

I triple dog dare you to buy them!!!!!!:eek:

^ LOL, i think im gonna do it. they are stainless, so they shouldnt rot on me. if they have any bad spots in the welds i can fix that before installing. the only thing im worried about is the actual fitment, but im going to see if the seller will take em back if they dont line up. if they DO line up, and i ever have a problem i would only be out less than 100 bucks and i could always put my stockers back on.

You get what you pay for..simple as that.
