If faced with two choices, shorty headers or alum. ds, on an NA car I would choose the alum. ds.
The headers will barely have any gains vs. the price, so the bang for the buck simply isn't there unless you are FI and looking for that last bit of power.
The alum. ds is something that you will feel all the time. Smoother acceleration, less rotational weight is a good thing.

Oddysey, check with Dave at Shaftmasters - great guy and he will get back with you. I thought that the 3.5" was good for some pretty good drops; my car isn't lowered so I can't tell you for sure on it, and I can't remember who installed the first 3.5 on a lowered Mustang and how much he was lowered. He may be a member on this forum so you can try a search for his install write up.

I installed my Shaftmaster's 4 inch shaft about 6 months ago and it has performed beautifully. It also comes with very strong u-joints, and that in itself is worth every penny you pay for it. I too paid $389 many months ago. I'm running 1005 rwhp through my shaft and it holds up great. Jack
