Header question
Just found these and am wondering if anyone else uses them? Also is this a good price, reputable company? Oh yeah I have a 91 LX 5.0 vert. Are my electric window switches suppose to be backlit?

RE: Header question
yes... you can use them, I have the same ones. The only problem is, they are hard to install because they are equal, and my stearing shaft is rubbing on them making it harder to turn
im gonna take care of that soon though

RE: Header question
Yes, they are good headers and yes BBK is a VERY reputable company.... prob one of the biggest in the 5.0 aftermarket industry.
Like Valcore said, they are equal lengths so they will be a little harder to install.. if you dont want to deal with that you can go with the unequal lengths. Also, you should look into getting a ceramic coated paid instead of the ones you are looking at now. They are more money but well worth it.
Good Luck.

RE: Header question
Do you need some special setup for non-equals?
I have the stock manifolds right now...would non-equals and equals bolt right up to my h-pipe? Do the shorties always rub peoples steering shafts?
I'd like to get a set of these after I get my 3.73s

RE: Header question
The unequal length won't give you any problems on the steering shaft just the equal length ones will. Some guys on here don't have a rubbing issue...you can do this by putting shims in your motor mounts or just buy new motor mounts. That might take care of clearance issues.
