Arh follow up

Had my arh longtubes on for about 2 months now. I wanted to do a follow up and say im super pleased with the quality and performance of the product. I have about 1100 miles on them now and only just got around to checking header bolts for staying tight.

I havent had any leaks or anything, just figured it was a good idea. And to my surprise everything was still tight as they day i installed then. My only fear is if i would ever need to remove them for some reason. I realized today i didnt put any antiseize on the arh bolts that i used. Doh...... You live and learn i guess.

Future plans are to maybe throw one of moes throttle bodies on and make a dyno run. It seems like everyone in my area has forgotten you can still build a strong running gas truck. Ive proved quite a few of them wrong

Man I wish the ARH or Stainless works LTs were more affordable.

Isn't that the truth!!!

Definitely expensive, but the power and sound gains are worth every penny. So happy j waited and did them over shorties

I totally agree!!! I even had mine ceramic coated and used stage 8 locking bolts. I just finished my efan, ATI pulley, and 180 stat and loaded up hemifever custom 93 today and man what a difference. I have been driving stock for past 3-4 months and all I can say is wow! I did a zero to wot and when I stuffed it I smoked my 265-75-20 nitro exo grapplers which are 10 ply. Truck made a nice little burn and then took off strong. Made me smile. This was on pavement...
The headers are a must for these trucks once you get a manifold leak and you will. I am glad I pulled mine off early 15000. Have 22000 on it now.

Did you install your ARH header bolts as in or use antiseize? Kinda worried now i might have possible issues down the road

Still can't justify the expense unless I can find some used ones locally. I know they sound great, look/fit great and give decent power but a $1500+ price tag and coating is just too much. Oh well just my $.02

I agree and will wait for a good used set down the road. I will be happy with my shorties I'm using now.
