Default Ford Racing shorty headers

Anyone know how the ford racingheaders stack up against the JBA shorty headers?

not sure of how they compare to each other, but any shorty will get you maybe 5-10 hp if any, most people will suggest LT's and i suggest the same. if you are going to spend the time and money changing to headers u might as wellget LT's.

JBA Shorties here, I also wanted to keep the Cat's (emissions inspections), I added FRPP X-Pipe, and JBA SS Axle Backs Good results with this set-up.

There are only 2 shorty header companies that are CARB certified that can be used in CA, JBA and Edelbrocks.
