you better be sure that the LTs that you are going to get are designed to fit auto cars.

BBK arent for an auto, when i was looking at long tubes the only two brands that i saw that made longtubes were mac and pacesetter, im sure theres more out there but i didnt put much effort into the search cause i changed my mind and ended going with equal shorties

If you decide to go with MAC. Get them from hardcoremustangs

You will get the best deal through him. He is also an official site sponsor. Make sure you tell him that I sent you too.

Summit racing sells Hedman headers. Look then up on the site, I think they are about $175 for long tubes...

I just got the summits no problems with em so far and i havent heard any problems with em, Its all about what you want, longtubes will give you more lowend torque while shorties will give you more high end horsepower, but if your planning on stroking it out ever then definitly get longtubes a stroker needs 2 breath.

ORIGINAL: cougarfan088

well i am building it up to a 331 stroker, but i might do the patriot heads, i am putting on underdrive pulleys, MAF cold air intake, upper and lower intake manifold,throttle body,and i am rebuilding the tranny with a tci valve body, tranny cooler and ratchet shifter, and probably some 4:10 gears..and then all new ignition..
DONT!

grab a set of AFR's, Canfields, RHS (with a small modification to your intake), or TEA's
