Looking to get some headers for my 2010 5.7 hemi crew cab. But there are so many brands and options I I'm almost lost. I Already have a programmer, throttle body, intake, and exhaust. What brands are good, short or long tubes? And I'm in Cali so sadly they would have to be compliant. Any help on would be great.

The only headers available that are carb certified for CA are the JBA shorties. Only downside to this is that they only make about 8-12hp over stock where longtubes make 25-30hp.

I would go with gears or a higher stall tq converter over shorty headers if you are wanting more performance. Both these mods will give you much better results than you will get from a shorty header.

Awesome. Thanks for the advice. Are all these sold on your cite? What would pair best? Gears and converter?

The 4.56 would be faster, but gets a little less mileage on the highway.

And I guess I should have asked before, but do you currently have 3.55s or 3.92s?

I'm not even sure. I have a 2010 with a 5 speed automatic.

If you have 3.92's, then going to 4.10's wouldnt be worth the money...I would go straight to 4.56's. If you have 3.55's and are worried about mileage, then the 4.10 would be the better option.
