What do you guys think of BBK's Shorties? And does anybody know a good site to buy from? I'm looking for a good price. Also, is gefracing.com a good place to find some 4.10's? I'm in the market for those too.

Forgive my being upfront - but shorties on a 4.6 are the biggest waste of time and money you could possible spend for an upgrade. Get longtubes or BBK mid-lengths or nothing at all in my opinion. Longtubes are dyno proven to add 20+ rwhp, where as shorties are lucky to get you 5. Bad part about longtubes is that you will need a different mid-pipe to match. For gears I'd recommend going with Ford Racing, as they tend to be the easiest to setup and bacause of this the least likely to make noise. Good luck.
