I put a 1/3 in my intake via the brake booster, 1/3 in my oil, and 1/3 in my gas tank.
Mac makes longtube headders for the v6 mustang. the pro's to me are better performance, better sound, and fixing a exhaust leak from the a/c. The only cons i could think of would be that you won't pass emissions legaly and a slight loss of low end torque.
You can have a exhaust shop modify your divorced duals to fit the longtubes or you can buy a new midpipe.

yeah, use the seafoam in all of the listed places, but change your oil after a couple of hundred miles. you dont wanna keep recycling the gunk it removes. put some fresh oil in after it does its job, youll notice a difference.

100 milesat the most is what i understood it to be.

And i was assuming he was going with a catless setup, the only place that longtube headders are illegal is califorina.
