Well, the ONLY reason I would do headers in the first place is if I got the dreaded manifold ticks. Then I would. Other than that, I am fine with just a better sounding mid and muffler which I already changed. Living here in this expletive of a state I will never do long tubes. I'll be stopped all the time.... My friend that went long tubes, cat delete, and better mufflers got fined and the next fine was $10,000. He put it all back stock except the muffler. He lives right up the street. So no long tubes for me. I need something that will bolt up the factory type cats in the truck. Short tubes are a better option than the factory manifolds that will just leak again.
Best regards,
