The real question is.... how hard do you want to work to install them? OR a better question... how much beer do you have? lol

have fun getting equal length headers installed. they're supposed to be a bear to install

either go with shorties or Long tubes, the long tube H-pipe only cost's about $200, no biggie

If you want to put an s/c on later get L-T's, if not shorties are fine and will actaully give you
more low end torque than L-T's, but L-T's will flow better on a power adder set-up.

I love my equals...look bad @ss....I didn't think they were to bad to put in either. Either way you go, it will be an improvement over stock.

go for the equals. they really are not hard to put in and aside from better air flow they just look cooler.

You can buy a short h pipe to go mount up to long tubes. An off road h pipe for longtubes is a little over a $100.
