you have 2 different kinds of headers. shorty headers and long tube headers. full length and long tubes are the same (i believe), and are better for performance. shorty headers are basically pointless

I understand and know about shortys vs. longtubes.. I have long tubes on my stang .. I'm just saying .. I look and I see O/R h-pipes to fit Full length headers and O/R h's to fit Long Tube .. just wondering if there was a difference or if it was all inthe terminology ...

Are you talkin about midlength headers? Thats what it looks like you are referring to but I'm not sure.

No .. just the terminology .. BBK uses the words FULL LENGTH .. and MAC says LONG TUBE .. they look the same .. really I'm looking the O/R H pipes ... BBK says it will bolt up to its full length headers .. so I'm just wondering if they mean Long Tube and Full Length to be the same .. I mean the bends etc ... look the same on both headers... so I'm assuming its just different terminolgy ..
