Hey guys, looking to upgrade the stock 5.7 hemi manifolds for some headers to gain some hp and tq gains aswell as getting rid of the infamous manifold tick.
Looking at BBK shorty headers but am on the edge between short tube or long tube
And which ones better?
FYI Also have a k&n intake and muffler delete, installing a flashpaq f5 tune shortly.

Shorties are a waste of time.If you're budget allows it,do long tubes,they make more torque and pull harder all through the powerband .
BTW if your talking about the 06 in your avatar,you're in the wrong section,this is the 5th Gen section,and your truck is a 3rd Gen truck.
