Default Shorty Headers

Who's gottem? I need some reviews of them because I have to go with them. No longtubes because I am keeping the car emissions legal. So lets here some reviews. I was looking at bbks and jba. Any others suggestions appreciated.

i have ford racing shorties, i like them, i noticed a little more pep from them..i mean nothing like longtubes, but i dont know why everyone bashes shorties..anything flows better than the stock manifolds, youll see when you get them off how small the ports are

i have bbk's in my car right now. as for the power gain i can't tell ya becuase i also installed vt stage one cams at the same time. i installed them myself and wasn't too bad ended up lifting the engine and removing the engine mounts to get them in. but was very straight forward just time consuming. as in any header install on a 4.6

You can also try Bassani mid length headers. They are emissions legal.
